Brighton have secured the signing of Gabby George from Manchester United for a six-figure fee.
George had joined United in 2023, making 54 appearances in all competitions, but is said to be seeking more regular game time.
She was part of the Women’s FA Cup-winning squad in 2024, and also helped United qualify for the Champions League for the first time in their history.
George had one year left on her contract with the Red Devils but has now joined Brighton ahead of the new Women’s Super League season, with the Seagulls not revealing the length of her contract.
“We are delighted to welcome Gabby to the club,” said manager Dario Vidosic.
“Her versatility in defence gives us fantastic options and her technical quality on the ball will help elevate how we want to play.

“She understands what it takes to perform at the highest level in this league week-in, week-out, and her leadership both on and off the pitch will strengthen our group tremendously.
“We have big ambitions for the season ahead and adding a player of Gabby’s calibre and character is a massive step forward for us.”
George graduated from Everton’s academy and spent nine years at the club, making 152 appearances in all competitions before joining United.
The 29-year-old is the latest departure from United, who have seen the likes of Millie Turner, Lisa Naalsund and Melvine Malard transferred in a summer of upheaval.
Brighton, who have also signed Lia Walti and Emilie Joramo among others, finished seventh in the WSL last term and will open their campaign at home against Arsenal on September 6.
