It's a nail-biting wait for Chelsea fans as their star striker, Sam Kerr, battles her way back from a bloody ACL tear. Sidelined for over a year thanks to this bugger of an injury, picked up at training last January, her comeback is shrouded in uncertainty.
Kerr, the bloody iconic Aussie captain with a staggering 69 goals in 128 appearances, missed the Paris Olympics and has been an absentee in Chelsea's current Women's Super League (WSL) joust.
"She's putting in a colossal effort," grins Chelsea's coach, Sonia Bompastor, addressing the media on Monday. "Our performance crew's all-out to get her on the pitch this season. But whether she'll manage it before the final whistle, we ain't got a crystal ball."
With just a few games left and the season wrapping on May 10, 2025, the timing's crunchin'. Ideally, yes, we want Kerr back, but given her recovery's not kept standard timelines, pinning down a precise date's a bloody tough ask.
Chelsea's currently got a comfortable six-point lead over Arsenal in the WSL and a showdown with Manchester United in the FA Cup final on May 18. They clash with United again in the WSL on Wednesday.
Kerr's inclusion in the Matildas' squad, despite her injury, signals progress in her recovery. Her participation in Chelsea's remaining WSL matches and the upcoming FA Cup final could be a game-changer, but given her recovery woes, it's anyone's guess. So, here's to hoping the Aussie warrior can shrug off this injury and storm back onto the pitch before the curtain falls on this season.
- Hopefully, Sam Kerr will return to the sports field before the end of the European leagues, considering her inclusion in the Matildas' squad despite her anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury.
- If she manages to return, her participation in Chelsea's remaining Women's Super League (WSL) matches and the FA Cup final could potentially change the course of the season for Chelsea.
- Despite Chelsea's comfortable lead in the WSL and appearances in both the FA Cup final and a WSL match against Manchester United, fans eagerly await the return of star striker Sam Kerr from her ACL injury.
- The timing of Sam Kerr's return is crucial, as Chelsea's WSL season will conclude on May 10, 2025, and the FA Cup final is set for May 18 against Manchester United, making her possible return a critical factor in Chelsea's success in both competitions.
