Scotland forward Lizzie Arnot will leave Manchester United Women when her contract with the club expires later this month.

Arnot, capped 32 times by her country, moved from Hibernian alongside Kirsty Smith to the newly-formed United side ahead of the 2018-19 season and went on to make 34 appearances for the side, scoring nine times.

One of those goals was the club's first ever competitive goal in a 1-0 win over Liverpool in the Continental Cup in August 2018 before helping United attain promotion by claiming the FA Women's Championship title in their debut season.

United head coach Casey Stoney said: "I would like to personally thank Lizzie, another United history-maker who also scored our first ever competitive goal nearly two years ago.
