Chelsea Women have made waves in the transfer market this summer, with the addition of several new players to their squad. Sjoeke Nusken, Erin Cuthbert, and 19-year-old Wieke Kaptein have all been featured as central midfielders, adding depth to the team in that area. Meanwhile, the likes of Johanna Rytting Kaneryd, Guro Reiten, Lauren James, Maika Hamano, and Aggie Beever-Jones have all started out as attackers/wingers, providing Chelsea with a strong attacking front.
In a recent development, it was announced that Chelsea Women have appointed a successor to their current manager, Emma Hayes. While details about the new manager have not been revealed yet, it is clear that the team is looking to build on their success under Hayes’s leadership.
Unfortunately, Chelsea Women have been hit with a number of injuries ahead of the new season. Erin Cuthbert is expected to be unavailable after suffering an injury in America, joining long-term absentees Sam Kerr, Mia Fishel, and Aniek Nouwen on the sidelines. Additionally, new signing Julia Bartel is also absent as she is currently representing Spain at a youth World Cup.
With the start of the new season fast approaching, Chelsea Women will have to regroup and prepare for the challenges ahead. With a mixture of new signings and familiar faces, the team will be looking to build on their success from last season and push for more silverware.
In goal, Hannah Hampton will be tasked with keeping the opposition at bay, providing a solid last line of defense for Chelsea Women. As the team continues to strengthen and prepare for the upcoming season, fans can expect an exciting and competitive campaign ahead.
