Guerrero, 26, was part of the squad that won Spain's first World Cup last month, making three substitute appearances. The central midfielder, who has 16 caps, joined Atletico in 2022 - winning the Queen's Cup last season. "Irene is a World Cup winner whose quality is an excellent addition to our team," United coach Marc Skinner said. We are delighted to bring a player of Irene's stature to Manchester United Women." United, who finished second in the league last year, open the new WSL campaign at Aston Villa on Oct. 1.
