Chelsea Women confirm major signing of USA international striker

Chelsea have signed USA international forward Catarina Macario in a huge deal for the Blues.

The club confirmed Macario will join the club on July 1 when her contract with French giants Olympique Lyonnais expires. After two years in France with Lyon, Macario will join Chelsea next month on a free transfer and will sign a three-year deal until 2026.

The 23-year-old forward hasn't played since June last year after suffering an ACL injury and she confirmed last month she won't be ready for this summer's World Cup in Australia and New Zealand, insisting her full focus is on getting fit for her next club season.
