England goalkeeper Mary Earps has joined Paris Saint-Germain on a free transfer, the French club announced on Monday.
Earps has signed a contract until the end of the 2025-26 season at PSG after her deal at Old Trafford, which she had previously held talks to extend, expired at the end of June.
This will be Earps' second stint outside England, after spending the 2018-19 season with Wolfsburg. She moved to United the following year and went on to make 102 appearances for the club in all competitions.
The 31-year-old won the WSL Golden Glove award in the 2022-2023 season, with her 14 clean-sheets setting a new league record.

Earps played a key role in the club's FA Cup triumph last season -- the first major trophy in their history. She made a string of superb saves in their semifinal win over Chelsea and went on to keep a clean-sheet in the final against Tottenham.
During her time at United, Earps lifted the Euros with England in 2022 and won the Golden Glove at the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup. She saved a penalty in the final against Spain, but couldn't prevent England from losing 1-0.

PSG have an available non-EU player quota place available for Earps, with Tabitha Chawinga departing after her one-year loan spell and Eva Gaetino having a Hungarian passport through a relative.
