Man Utd Submit Application to Reinstate Women's Team in WSL2 Ahead of 2018/19 Season

Manchester United are set to re-join the world of women's football after they applied for a grant to establish a professional team in the Women's Super League 2.

The Red Devils took to their official site to reveal that they had lodged an application with the Football Association about becoming the latest member of its WSL2 league.

If the application is granted, female players from the long-established Girls' Regional Talent Club would be given a clearer pathway into the division via United's women's team.
