Chelsea forward Sam Kerr named Football Writers' Association Women's player of the year

Chelsea's Sam Kerr has been named women's footballer of the year by the Football Writers' Association for the second year running.

The Australia international claimed the prize alongside men's footballer Mohamed Salah last year and her form in Blue this term has earned the plaudits once again. Kerr has played a key role in Chelsea's title chase this season, as well as in their journey to two domestic cup finals and Champions League semi-final.

Kerr has 27 goals across all competitions this season, 10 of which have come in the Women's Super League. Man City's Khadija Shaw and Aston Villa's Rachel Daly lead the chase for the golden boot, but it's been another high-scoring campaign for the Chelsea forward.
