Arsenal, who are also understood to have made an offer for Lyon's Danish striker Signe Bruun, have maintained their interest in Russo for several months and are certainly testing the waters. Manchester United have maintained they do not want to lose Russo, but with her contract expiring in the summer and talks over a new contract stagnating, they may find it hard to turn down significant offers. Russo's contract with the Red Devils runs out this summer and the deadline for domestic transfers in the WSL is 17:00 GMT on Tuesday.
