Sam Kerr breaks more Chelsea history as Man City put themselves on brink of Women's Super League title

A fitting way for Sam Kerr to end her Chelsea journey is as the club's all-time leading WSL scorer. Rumours are she will depart this summer when her contract expires.

There was a point in time where it felt like she would never reach Fran Kirby's target, sidelined for 20 months with an ACL injury and unable to complete as many minutes as she would have liked. Of the minutes she did play, few were at her immensely high pre-injury standard.

But since returning from the Asia Cup in March, where she scored four goals as Australia made it to the final, she has been back to her old self, averaging 1.4 goal contributions a game. This is the Kerr of yesteryear, a player revered as the most fearsome forward in the game. Perhaps one of the best ever in her position.
