Manchester United Women have announced the signing of France international Aissatou Tounkara. The 27-year-old, who helped her country reach the semi-finals of the European Championship last month, has joined the club on a two-year deal from Atletico Madrid.
She has spent the last four years applying her trade in Spain, and will add a wealth of quality and experience to Marc Skinner's side.
She has become United Women's seventh signing of the summer, following the recent arrivals of Rachel Williams from Tottenham Hotspur and England international Nikita Parris from Arsenal.
The club will hope that their newest recruits will help them qualify for the Champions League this coming season, after narrowly missing out last time around.
