This move absolutely blew up the internet (and probably a few WhatsApp groups too!). It’s a massive signing for Chelsea, a real statement of intent. Walsh is, without a doubt, one of the best midfielders in the world. She’s got that incredible ability to dictate the tempo of a game, boss the midfield, and, let’s be honest, she’s a total midfield magician.

They’re aiming high this season, let’s be clear, and snapping up Walsh is a huge step towards achieving their ambitions. Imagine the midfield partnerships we’re going to see! The possibilities are endless, and frankly, a little terrifying for the rest of the WSL.
