Sam Kerr: Chelsea striker to return from injury against Manchester City | Football News



Chelsea striker Sam Kerr is set to make her return from injury against Manchester City on Sunday in the Women’s Super League.

The Australian forward missed Chelsea’s 2-1 victory over Tottenham on the opening day of the season due to a calf injury that has troubled her since the Women’s World Cup.

But Kerr, who has scored 86 goals in 110 appearances for the Blues, will be part of Emma Hayes’ squad this weekend.

“She’s back in full training,” said Hayes at her pre-match press conference. “For Sam, she’s never perfect, she always wants a little bit more, but she’s available for selection.”
