Sam Kerr’s Chelsea days look numbered – but record-breaking striker still has time to add to her Blues legend
Kerr’s slow and steady build-up to this point of being the go-to striker again is welcome, then, and especially as Chelsea look to end their season on a high. After all, this is a player who relishes the big moments, something her goal-scoring record at the club emphasises perfectly.
Prior to her injury, in 33 appearances against the rest of the WSL’s ‘Big Four’ – Arsenal, Man City and Manchester United – Kerr scored 20 times. Her record in the Champions League, the highest-level of club competition in Europe and the world, reads 20 goals in 34 games. In the seven cup finals Kerr has played for the Blues, she has scored a remarkable 10 goals, to win five of them. When the pressure is on, she steps up.
