Manchester United confirmed to take part in inaugural World Sevens Football tournament
Manchester United Women will take part in the inaugural World Sevens Football (W7F) series event in Portugal next month, organisers have confirmed.
The Red Devils could yet be joined by Chelsea or Arsenal in the lucrative new eight-team tournament, which has a total prize pot of five million US dollars (£3.8million).
Three other teams – Ajax, Bayern Munich and Benfica – were confirmed alongside Manchester United on Thursday. Jacob has also not ruled out the possibility of a club from the United States’ National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL) taking part.
