After leaving Barcelona, England defender Lucy Bronze joined with Women’s Super League winners Chelsea on Wednesday.

Bronze spent two years with Barcelona, winning two Women’s Champions League titles, but her contract expired in June, ending her two-year stint.
The former full-back for Manchester City and Liverpool is back in England and will join Chelsea, the WSL champions the last five seasons.
“To know I’m a Chelsea player still feels a little bit surreal,” Lucy Bronze said.
“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.”
Bronze has been capped 125 times by England and helped them to glory at the Women’s European Championship in 2022.
She won the WSL title with Liverpool and City, while also enjoying multiple Women’s Champions League triumphs during her time with Lyon.
