Manchester United have signed Norway forward Celin Bizet from Tottenham on a three-year deal.

United triggered the release clause in her Spurs contract which is believed to be about £60,000.

The 22-year-old was a key player under Tottenham manager Robert Vilahamn last season and played against United in the Women's FA Cup final.

She is United's sixth signing of the summer and joined the squad on their pre-season training camp in Marbella this week.

Bizet reunites with England international Grace Clinton, who spent last season on loan at Tottenham from United.

Spurs signed Australia international Hayley Raso as a replacement for Bizet earlier this month.

"I'm very excited to take this next step in my career and sign for such a great club as Manchester United," said Bizet, who has 21 caps for Norway.

"I cannot wait to pull on the famous red shirt and create winning moments in front of these wonderful fans."
