A tearful Magda Eriksson has announced she will leave Chelsea when her contract expires this summer. The captain has been with the club for six years and will end her spell with an 11th major trophy if Chelsea secure a fourth consecutive Women’s Super League title. Chelsea are two points clear at the top of the WSL with two matches to play, putting Eriksson on course to win the double for third year in a row.
Eriksson, who will be 30 in September, joined from the Swedish club Linköping and her emotions were apparent in a video posted by Chelsea. “Really difficult to even talk about or say out loud,” said Eriksson, who lifted the FA Cup last Sunday.

“It’s been an unbelievable time – best time of my life,” the defender said. “It’s been six unbelievable years together with my teammates, together with the fans and the club in general. I feel so privileged to have been on this journey with the club and we have really established ourselves as one of the best clubs in the world.
“It’s been such an amazing journey so I am not only sad, although it may look like it. I’m also really really happy and just proud of the whole journey and everything we have been through together. It’s mixed emotions for sure.”
Eriksson has won the WSL and FA Cup four times and the League Cup twice. She was part of the Chelsea team that reached the Champions League final in 2021.
