Man Utd Women midfielder Emma Watson joins Crystal Palace on loan for 2025/26
Having returned from that spell on Merseyside – which featured winning the Toffees’ Player of the Match award for a performance against Spurs – the 19-year-old has been back in pre-season with United and featured in the first two of our four friendlies this summer.
The teenager is now set to gain further experience in south London this season, under the tutelage of new Palace boss Jo Potter, who took charge of Rangers in the same summer that Emma departed the Scottish giants for United.
Potter went on to win domestic cup doubles in each of her two years with the Glasgow club before being appointed at Palace earlier this off-season, as they seek to bounce back from last term’s relegation in their first campaign as a WSL side.
