Manchester United have pulled off a coup by signing prolific German striker Lea Schüller on a three-and-a-half-year contract, sending shockwaves through the women's football community. The 28-year-old forward boasts an impressive goal-scoring record in Germany's Frauen Bundesliga and international competitions, having consistently broken the 10-goal barrier in each of her seven seasons with clubs such as SGS Essen and Bayern Munich.
Schüller is widely regarded as one of the most talented strikers in women's football, possessing a rare combination of speed, power, and aerial ability that makes her a nightmare for opposing defenders. Her impressive record has already caught the attention of Manchester United coaches, who believe she can be the perfect addition to their squad.
According to former coach Daniel Kraus, who worked with Schüller at SGS Essen between 2016 and 2019, the German forward has everything required to become a world-class striker. "She is fast, she has two great feet, she is good with her head, and she is strong," Kraus said. "I think she has got everything and I'm really looking forward to seeing her playing in England."
The arrival of Schüller at Manchester United has sent optimism among fans, who believe she can help the team achieve success in both domestic and international competitions. With a new coach and several talented young players, including Ella Toone and Fridolina Rolfö, Schüller is likely to form a potent attacking trio that will pose a threat to opponents.
Schüller's signing has also sparked hopes that she could become an even more important player for Germany in the future. Kraus believes that if she can adapt her game to England's physical style of play and develop her defensive skills, she may be able to earn herself a new role at the national team level. "If she gets used to the style of play in England, the physical side too, I think she will maybe get a new role in the national team as well," Kraus said.
With Schüller now set to form part of Manchester United's attack, fans are eagerly awaiting her first game for the club and hoping that she can bring instant success to Old Trafford.
