Women's Super League side Manchester City have re-signed England right-back Lucy Bronze from European champions Lyon.

The 28-year-old won her third consecutive Women's Champions League title with the French side in August.

She returns on a free transfer as her contract with Lyon expired on Monday.

Winner of the BBC's Women's Footballer of the Year award for the second time in 2020, Bronze is one of the sport's most decorated defenders.

She has been an integral part of the Lionesses side that have reached the semi-finals of three major international tournaments in a row and her return will be seen as a huge boost to City's hopes of reclaiming the WSL crown, as well as their attempts to win a first European title.

Bronze is City's fourth summer signing so far, after the arrivals of World Cup-winning United States midfielders Sam Mewis and Rose Lavelle, and England forward Chloe Kelly from Everton.
