Jess Park’s impressive first season at Manchester United has earned her one of the biggest individual recognitions in English football.

The midfielder has been shortlisted for the PFA Women’s Player of the Year award after a season that saw her become one of United’s most influential attacking players following her move from Manchester City.

Park scored nine goals and provided five assists across all competitions, helping establish herself as a key figure in Marc Skinner’s side.

Her nomination places her alongside some of the biggest names in the women’s game, like Lauren James, Alessia Russo, Bunny Shaw, Kirsty Hanson and Yui Hasegawa.

Arriving on deadline day last summer, she wasted little time making an impact and finished the season among United’s most productive players in the final third.
