Newcastle are interested in signing the England striker Nikita Parris from the Women’s Super League club Manchester United. The newly promoted Women’s Championship side are hoping to sign a striker to boost their chances of reaching the WSL, and they are targeting the 71‑cap Lioness.
A transfer fee would be required if Newcastle were to sign her, after Manchester United triggered a one‑year extension to the 30‑year‑old’s contract until 2025 this summer by exercising an option in her deal.
