Grace Clinton played an important role for the Lionesses off the bench at Euro 2025
Arsenal are pushing forward in a move for Manchester United’s Grace Clinton with the clubs discussing personal terms ahead of a potential transfer.
Arsenal fans have been calling for the Gunners to sign Clinton following her impressive performances at Euro 2025.
The midfielder featured in five of England’s six games as they won the Euros in Switzerland.
The Lionesses are now just 3/1 to win Euro 2029 with betting sites – when 22-year-old Clinton should play a more prominent role.
With Manchester United last year Clinton enjoyed another consistent campaign.
The midfielder made 21 appearances in the 2024/25 WSL with 19 starts in her second year with the Red Devils.
After two years with 20+ games in the top flight it comes as no surprise that Clinton is highly sought after by top clubs.
