Chelsea news: Brilliant attacker really excited after shock Blues deal announced

Gotham FC has signed Norwegian star forward Guro Reiten from Chelsea, and the attacker is very excited about the move away from the WSL giants.

The 31-year-old winger departs the Women’s Super League champions after several trophy-laden seasons in London, with the club confirming that she will continue her career in the United States’ National Women’s Soccer League.

Reiten joined CHELSEA from Norwegian side LSK Kvinner FK in 2019 and quickly established herself as one of the most influential players in the squad. Known for her creativity, crossing ability and consistent goal contributions, she became a key figure under head coach Emma Hayes during a period of domestic dominance.

During her time at Chelsea, Reiten helped the club secure multiple Women’s Super League titles as well as domestic cup triumphs, playing a crucial role in the team’s attacking play from the left flank. Her vision and delivery from wide areas made her a regular provider of assists, while she also chipped in with important goals in league and European competition.

And after sealing her shock move away from Chelsea ladies, the attacker opened up and confirmed that she is very excited to have joined Gotham FC this Month and is looking forward to the experience she will have.

‘I’m really excited to join Gotham FC and grateful for the opportunity to be part of this club,” said Reiten. “Gotham has built something special over the past few years, and there’s clear ambition here. I’m looking forward to working hard, learning and doing everything I can to help the team succeed.”

“Guro is a player of exceptional quality who has consistently performed at the highest levels of the game,” said Yael Averbuch West, the general manager and head of soccer operations for Gotham FC.

“Her experience competing for major trophies with CHELSEA and her impact with the Norwegian national team will bring valuable leadership and attacking creativity to our squad. We’re excited to welcome her to Gotham.”
