Australian striker Sam Kerr has committed to Chelsea, signing a two-year contract extension that secures her place at the London club until 2026.

The announcement was made Thursday, confirming Kerr's impressive tenure, which includes five consecutive Women's Super League titles, three FA Cups, and two League Cups. She boasts an extraordinary record of 99 goals in 128 games for Chelsea and 69 goals for the Australian national team.

Despite an ACL injury sustained in January, Kerr expressed her excitement about the contract extension and aiming for future trophies.
