Lionesses goalkeeper Mary Earps reveals why she made 'tough decision' to leave Man Utd and join PSG

<a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/lionesses-mary-earps-paris-saint-germain-transfer-manchester-united/blt714e7d05fd05503a" target="_blank">Earps opted to head to France in the summer transfer window</a>, bringing down the curtain on a five-year stay at United. The departure was undoubtedly a blow to the Red Devils, given that the Lionesses goalkeeper has twice won the Best FIFA Women's Goalkeeper prize, but she has now revealed exactly why she felt she had to make the move.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Earps left on fantastic terms, having bowed out with an FA Cup win, as she won her first United trophy in her final game for the club. And she has now explained that she was desperate to challenge herself.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Earps told <a href="https://www.90min.com/features/mary-earps-exclusive-i-really-want-to-push-myself-out-of-my-comfort-zone" target="_blank">90min</a>: "I think for me, it was a tough decision. It was something I went backwards and forwards on for a long time."It’s not easy to leave a place that you’ve been for a long time, and have incredible memories with incredible people. I felt like this move to PSG was going to take me out of my comfort zone. It was going to add something to me as a player and a person. I feel the team is one of the best in Europe without a shadow of a doubt. I’m hoping that I can come in and help, so the quality will be strong enough to really compete for trophies and titles."I’ve had an incredible five years, but I’m excited for this new challenge. The facilities here are unbelievable, as you’ve seen, and I’m really looking forward to getting started."

WHAT EARPS SAID

Earps could make her first appearance for PSG in a pre-season friendly against Le Havre on August 28. If not then, she could play when she returns to England to face West Ham in their final warm-up fixture.
