Chelsea are in advanced talks over a transfer for Manchester United forward Melvine Malard.
Talks are taking place between the clubs over a deal which would be worth in the region of £850,000 plus add-ons, with personal terms not expected to be an issue.
It would represent a club-record sale for United and the highest fee a women’s club has received for a player with a year left on their contract.
The 26-year-old is entering the final year of her contract and it had become increasingly clear that an agreement over renewed terms would not be reached.
United were keen to not lose a high-value player on a free transfer having done so in previous windows when Alessia Russo and Mary Earps both left the club.
