On Thursday, it was reported that Chelsea were ‘hoping’ to add USWNT and Angel City winger Alyssa Thompson, before the Women’s Super League (WSL) window closes on September 4.
, also added that Chelsea were ‘ready” to sign Thompson. Sonia Bompastor and Chelsea kicks off their WSL season against Manchester City on September 5.In the latest NWSL availability report, Alyssa Thompson is listed as OUT (excused absence).
If there is a move by the Thursday deadline, it will certainly
come with a world-record transfer fee.
The timing is odd as ACFC are only one point below the playoff line. Could Mark Parsons and Angel City FC really be making this move now?
