The 36-year-old called time on her playing career in February 2018 after agreeing to join England Women head coach Phil Neville's backroom staff.

The defender earned 130 caps for the Three Lionesses and was captain of the Great Britain team at the 2012 Olympic Games in London.
Manchester United Women's Team would be based at the club's historic training centre at The Cliff.
