England forward Leah Galton has spoken about the emotional challenge of leaving Manchester United and how her move to Burnley has reignited her love for the game.

The 29-year-old winger departed Old Trafford in the summer after five seasons with the Women's Super League club, describing the decision as painful but necessary for her development.

Since joining Burnley Women, who compete in the FA Women's National League North, Galton has found renewed motivation and playing time, stating that the environment has brought back her fire.

Galton, who has earned caps for the Lionesses, hopes her performances at Turf Moor can push her back into international contention.
