Sam Kerr: What does future hold for superstar striker?

Share

Sam Kerr is one of the world’s best female footballers so it is no surprise the uncertainty over her future has caused a stir.

 

The Australia captain, 26, has broken goalscoring records for fun while playing in the United States and her home country in recent years.

 

Fresh from scoring the winner which sent her Chicago Red Stars team into the National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL) final on Sunday, the 26-year-old could be eyeing up a move to Europe next, with Chelsea among the reported destinations.

 

But where could she go? Why is she in such demand? And what does European football have to offer?

 

Kerr is a goalscoring phenomenon.

 

From October-April, she plays with Perth Glory in the Australian W-League and joins up with Chicago Red Stars in America from April-September.

 

She has dominated both divisions in terms of goalscoring, becoming the all-time leading scorer in the W-League with 70 goals and again, in the NWSL, with 69.
