Man Utd ‘turn down WORLD RECORD transfer offer for Mary Earps’ as England goalkeeper wins huge row

MANCHESTER UNITED have turned down a WORLD RECORD transfer fee for England keeper Mary Earps.

The Lionesses star, 30, was the standout shot-stopper at the Women's World Cup this summer, winning the Golden Glove for best keeper at the tournament.

And she is now attracting interest from other clubs.

However, Sky Sports News, who have reported the world record bid, have not confirmed which club has made the offer.

But it has been dismissed by Man Utd as they look to keep hold of their No1.

Earps joined the Red Devils from Wolfsburg four years ago.

She has made 96 appearances for the Women's Super League side and reached the FA Cup final last season - losing 1-0 to Chelsea.

Earps has also earned 41 caps for England since making her international debut in 2017.

She was integral to the Lionesses reaching this summer's Women's World Cup final.

And, while Sarina Wiegman's side lost 1-0 in the final, Earps did herself proud by saving a late penalty to keep England in the game.

Meanwhile, on Thursday, Earps forced Nike into a huge U-turn over their decision not to retail replica keeper shirts for the Women's World Cup.

The decision enraged fans as they were unable to purchase the Man Utd keeper's national team strip.

And Earps' own clothing line began selling t-shirts in response to the disappointing decision.

Another company began selling "unofficial" Earps merchandise which included a pointed dig at Nike.

But now  are reporting that the sports clothing brand will be selling limited quantities of the shirt.
