Chelsea sign England defender Bronze

 

England defender Lucy Bronze has joined Women's Super League champions Chelsea on a free transfer.

The 32-year-old, who has signed a two-year contract, left Barcelona after her contact expired last month.

"To know I’m a Chelsea player still feels a little bit surreal," said Bronze, a member of the England team that won Euro 2022.

"I’m really excited to be back in England. My family are so excited as well to get to more of my games.

"I’m excited to be in London, to see what the capital holds and to be at a club that is renowned for winning so many trophies."
