She made her England bow in November 2022 and has won 20 caps for the Lionesses overall, as well as being part of this summer’s Euro 2025-winning squad.
Speaking about her move to United, Park said: “I am really happy to be here and can’t wait to get started. I wanted to break out of the boundaries and push myself to take on a new challenge.
“I’m the sort of person who wants to keep improving and pushing limits and I think this is the perfect place for me to do that.
“I’m a player who wants the ball and when I get it I like to look up and try and make things happen for my team-mates, so I think I can fit in really well here.
“I know the ambitions are very high and I want to help the team push towards them.”
Manchester United director of women’s football Matt Johnson added: “We are delighted to have attracted Jess to Manchester United.
“She brings excellent technical quality, creative ability and a winning mentality; and, importantly, she showed a strong desire to join the club and be part of the project we are building here.
“As the transfer window draws to a close, we are very pleased with the investments we have made in Jess, Julia (Zigiotti Olme), and Fridolina (Rolfo) – all world-class players who know what it takes to compete and win at the highest level.
“They will further strengthen our talented young squad as we look to take the next steps forward in our development, this season and beyond.”
