Mary Earps is no stranger to the Women's Super League and hopes to mark her return with a match against her former club.
The new London City Lionesses goalkeeper felt it was "meant to be" that her potential debut could come against Manchester United.
During the peak of her career, she spent five seasons at United, becoming England number one and twice being named Fifa's goalkeeper of the year.
After a spell at Paris St-Germain, Earps wants to return to England on a high in Friday's season opener (19:00 BST) and will no doubt find herself in the limelight again.
"I got a nice reception at Old Trafford [in the Women's Champions League last season] and it meant a great deal to me at that time," Earps told BBC Sport.
