Marc Skinner’s press conference after Grace Clinton and Jess Park deals
Discussing the window more generally, Skinner explained his surprise at some of the deals conducted late on, especially London City Lionesses’ record-breaking deal for Grace Geyoro. It was the third time the record had been broken in this one window.
“If we’re being really honest, the window’s gone crazy, right?” Skinner said.
“I’ve just been hearing about the Grace Geyoro move, and that is crazy! The window and the market has shifted so much that, actually, a lot of teams will have looked at it and decided, we need to strategise in a slightly different way.
“The players we’ve brought in have been incredible. If you looked at bringing in experience to a really talented young group, you’ve got players from Barcelona, Bayern Munich and Manchester City, who have won 30 titles between them. Depth will be something we need to address in the winter window, we have to be active in the window.
