Chelsea have completed the signing of 18-year-old English defender Brooke Aspin from Bristol City

Aspin is a product of the Bristol City academy system, progressing into the first team where she made her debut at the age of 16, and her performances prompted the Blues to make a move for the defender.

And now the WSL Champions have revealed that she has agreed to join the club on a four-year deal

The club said: ‘Everyone at Chelsea would like to welcome Brooke to the club, and extend our best wishes to her for the upcoming season with Bristol City.

WHAT ASPIN SAID –

Speaking on the prospect of playing for Chelsea, Aspin said: ‘It feels amazing, I’ve dreamed of this moment since I was a little girl and to be here right now, I can’t really put it into words. I’m excited to learn from the best, the players and staff are world class and I want to be world class myself. This is where I want to be and what I want to surround myself with.’

Boss Emma Hayes Reaction – 

Manager Emma Hayes commented: ‘Brooke is a player that we have been tracking for the last three years. She has extensive experience for her age and is a young centre-back that we have very high hopes for in the future.’
