Lyon Women have confirmed the signing of former Manchester United Women's captain Alex Greenwood.

The England international was part of Phil Neville's World Cup squad that reached the semi-finals this summer.

Greenwood had these words for her former club: "Thank you to everyone at @ManUtdWomen for a fantastic time. I loved every minute of getting the club to where it belongs. A special thank you to the barmy army, my time wouldn't have been the same without your support - I wish the club the best of luck for the upcoming season."

She added: "I'm so excited to be joining Lyon - the best women's club in the world - and to test myself against the best players every day. Excited for the journey ahead."
