England defender Laura Bassett has joined Australian W-League club Canberra United.

Bassett, 34, was a free agent after her previous side Notts County Ladies folded in April.

She becomes the third Lioness to move abroad this summer after striker Toni Duggan joined Barcelona and right-back Lucy Bronze signed for Lyon.

“After what happened at Notts I’m looking forward to putting it behind me and a fresh start,” Bassett said.

“It’s out of my comfort zone and something I’ve never done before and it will be a real challenge for me to go overseas.”

England thump Russia in World Cup qualifying
Notts Country were liquidated on the eve of the Women’s Super League One Spring Series, meaning Bassett did not play any club football before the European Championship in July – where England were knocked out in the semi-finals.

“I had quite a few options considering my age, it’s nice to know I am still respected and they value the experience I can give to a team,” Bassett told BBC Sport.

The defender is part of the England squad playing in the World Cup qualifiers, which they began with a 6-0 victory over Russia on Tuesday.

The 2017-18 winter Women’s Super League season – the first since a transition from the previous summer calendar – begins on 22 September.

There is a new prolific Premier League strike partnership on the prowl.

Manchester City’s free-scoring front men have started the season brilliantly – but how do they compare to the deadliest partnerships in the history of the league?

In contrast, teams in London cannot find the net, while the weekend games suggested that possession does not necessarily equal points.

BBC Sport analyses the most interesting statistics from the latest action in the Premier League.

Can City slickers become top duo?

With the evolution of false nines, inverted wingers and hard-working solo forwards, it appeared the days of traditional Premier League strike partnerships were behind us.

And when Gabriel Jesus arrived at Manchester City from Palmeiras last season, Pep Guardiola said he intended to play the young Brazilian in a wide role.

But while the 20-year-old has since impressed his boss as a “nine”, he has stiff competition for that spot from Sergio Aguero, who has scored 175 goals since joining City in 2011.

Guardiola’s solution? Play them both. It has proved an inspired choice.

“We scored a lack of goals last season so we thought that maybe they should play together,” Guardiola told BBC Sport after his side hammered Watford 6-0 on Saturday, with Aguero netting a hat-trick and Jesus also on the scoresheet.

Yorke and Cole and Shearer and Sutton

BBC Sport football analyst Garth Crooks says the South American duo remind him of a partnership formed on the other side of Manchester.

“Aguero and Jesus are looking formidable together and developing a striking partnership I’ve not seen since the days of Dwight Yorke and Andy Cole, and we all know what they accomplished,” said former Spurs forward Crooks.

Cole and Yorke scored 53 goals between them in all competitions as Sir Alex Ferguson’s side won the treble in 1998-99, but how do Aguero and Jesus compare to that pair as well as the Premier League’s other most prolific partnerships?

Manchester United made it a frustrating homecoming for Wayne Rooney as they thrashed Everton 4-0 at Old Trafford on Super Sunday.

United’s all-time leading scorer watched his former team-mates take an early lead thanks to a fantastic strike from Antonio Valencia with just four minutes on the clock before late goals from Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Romelu Lukaku, who was scoring against his former club, and Anthony Martial put further gloss on the victory.

Despite chances at either end, including a good one for Rooney, Everton couldn’t live up to United’s ruthlessness, as the hosts moved level on points at the top of the table with rivals Manchester City.

The result leaves Everton with just four points after their first five Premier League games, although their tricky fixture list, which has seen them take on United, City, Chelsea and Tottenham, is behind them now.

Liverpool target Naby Keita ‘staying’ at RB Leipzig Guinea midfielder Naby Keita is staying at Leipzig, his coach says

Guinea’s Naby Keita is "100 per cent" staying at his current club RB Leipzig, despite interest from Liverpool, according to coach Ralph Hasenhuttl.

The 22-year-old impressed in Leipzig’s second-placed finish in the Bundesliga last season.

The German club have since reportedly rejected two bids from Liverpool for the midfielder over the summer.

"The chances of Naby leaving are nil," Hasenhuttl said after Leipzig’s 1-0 Emirates Cup defeat to Sevilla.

"It’s 100 percent that Naby will play this year at Leipzig.

"At the beginning of the transfer period we said we would start the season with all our best players.

"Liverpool will finish their transfer activities and that’s ok with me."
