Earps was a key figure in England's Euro 2022-winning side, starting every game, and also featured throughout their run to the 2023 World Cup final. She shocked many by announcing her international retirement on the eve of Euro 2025.
Also, Mapi Leon has already confirmed she's leaving Barcelona and is set to finalise a deal to sign for the London City Lionesses.
London City Lionesses are also in discussions to sign Alexia Putellas but she is weighing up offers from the National Women's Soccer League (NWSL) before making a decision.
'Two huge signings for London City'
Sky Sports News' reporter Anton Toloui:
"We knew London City would be busy this summer. Negotiations for Earps and Leon have been going on for some time. That's two huge signings they'll be looking to make official in the next few weeks."
