Australia’s Super Striker Sam Kerr Extends Contract With Chelsea
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on WhatsappShare on EmailShare on Telegram

Chelsea Marquee women striker Sam Kerr has penned a new two-year contract with the club keeping her until 2026, the Women’s Super League champions announced on Thursday.
The 30-year-old Australia captain, whose previous contract was about to expire, has been on the score sheet 99 times for the club in 128 matches since arriving at the West London club from Chicago Red Stars in 2019.
“It’s really exciting and a very proud moment for me,” Kerr told chelseafc.com. “Having the opportunity to stay at a club like Chelsea means a lot to me.


“I’m really excited to continue to push and to try to win trophies.”
Kerr, Australia’s all-time record goalscorer, has won five WSL titles, three FA Cups, and two League Cups at Chelsea.
She is currently going through a recovery process after suffering an anterior cruciate ligament injury in January, which has also ruled her out of the Olympics in Paris, which start next month.

Kerr has won the WSL Golden Boot twice and was second behind Spain’s Aitana Bonmati at the Ballon d’Or awards last year.
Chelsea Women general manager Paul Green said, “We are delighted to have Sam extends her contact with the club.
“Sam is a leader and one of the world’s best strikers and goalscorers. She has been very important to our success, and we look forward to welcoming her back from injury next season.”
In March, Kerr pleaded not guilty to a racially aggravated offense against a London police officer. She is likely to face trial in February next year.
