Australian women's football icon Sam Kerr signs a contract with Chelsea
Australia's forward Sam Kerr speaks with the referee during an international friendly football match between Australia and Chile at Coopers Stadium in Adelaide on November 12, 2019.
The 26-year-old Matildas captain – who scored five times in this year's World Cup as the Australians reached the last 16 – signed a two-and-a-half-year contract with the Women's Super League club. According to a report in the Sydney Morning Herald last week it is believed Kerr – who also attracted interest from Lyon, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid – will earn worth more than $600,000 a year, not including potential bonuses.
"I feel Chelsea have been building something special over the years and I want to be a part of that – I want to lift some trophies.""The fact she chose Chelsea when she could have gone to any club in the world is a testament to the players and the staff here," said Hayes."She's won the golden boot many times and she's a player that can make things happen, but she's also a fantastic team player.
