On the last day of the January transfer window, Manchester United rejected an offer from Arsenal, an offer that would have been a world record for the amount of compensation. It’s women’s football, and the Old Trafford giants have told their London rivals that Alessia Russo is not for sale at any price.

Russo is a 23-year-old English international of Italian origin, and her contract with United expires in June. Arsenal offered a little less than 500,000 pounds for her, which is 560,000 euros, but they received “NO” as an answer.
