It is not expected United will encounter any problems, with confirmation due next month.
United will join the likes of Arsenal, who currently lead the title race ahead of Manchester City.
Stoney has revealed how she has brought the team together, using boxing to build team spirit.
United will play in the Super League next season (PA) "When they came together last summer, they were effectively 21 strangers coming in to a room," Stoney told BBC Sport .
"It's quite incredible where we're at, in terms of the team togetherness. That's not by chance.
"We've been boxing at six o'clock in the morning, character-building. I believe in taking the players out of their comfort zones, because it stretches them."
