Manchester United have made a significant addition to their women's team with the signing of prolific goal-scorer Lea Schüller, marking a rare instance of a player surpassing the 10-goal mark in the Women's Super League. The German striker boasts an impressive record of 54 goals in 82 international matches and has already proven herself as a key figure for her national team.
Schüller's impressive attributes, including speed, two great feet, and strong heading ability, make her well-suited to Manchester United's playing style. According to coach Daniel Kraus, who worked with Schüller at SGS Essen between 2016 and 2019, she has everything needed to be a world-class striker.
The new signing is expected to bring confidence and a scoring touch to United's attack. With the team already known for their high volume of crosses, which should play to Schüller's strengths in terms of speed and headers. The club has signed her on a three-and-a-half-year contract until June 2029, allowing her to spend the best years of her career with the Manchester United women's team.
Schüller began her playing career at local club Hülser SV before moving on to score over 100 goals for Bayern Munich, although this season found game time harder to come by. Her ability to thrive in an attacking role and deliver results will be key to Manchester United's success, particularly if she can form a strong partnership with players such as Fridolina Rolfö and Ella Toone.
With the club's coaching staff optimistic about Schüller's potential to settle into the team quickly, fans are eagerly anticipating her first game in action. As one of the top forwards to join the WSL in recent years, Manchester United is hoping that Lea Schüller will become a key player in their bid for success and potentially even contribute to Germany's international team as well.
