Manchester United’s Fuso loaned to Bayer 04 Leverkusen | OneFootball

Manchester United attacker Ivana Fuso has joined German club Bayer 04 Leverkusen on a loan deal for the 2022/2023 season.

FAWSL Full-Time were informed of the news via an official club press release earlier today. Fuso remains part of the long term picture at Leigh Sports Village with the player also signing a new two-deal with Manchester United.

Fuso joined Manchester United in summer 2020 from Swiss side FC Basel but she has struggled for minutes with the club. The forward is yet to start a match for The Red Devils in the Barclays Women’s Super League.

Speaking following today’s announcement, Manchester United head coach Marc Skinner said “This loan move is an excellent opportunity for Ivana to play regular first team football. We know that she will continue to develop personally and professionally and come back an even better player for Manchester United Women.

“The German league is very good for the development of young players and a place where Ivana can express herself.

“We will be monitoring Ivana closely throughout the season and look forward to seeing her thrive in the Frauen-Bundesliga.”

Fuso has played in Germany previously when she was on the books of former side SC Freiburg at the start of her career.
