Chelsea Ladies are delighted to announce the signing of Eniola Aluko from Birmingham City Ladies ahead of the third FA Women's Super League season. Aluko returns to Chelsea after originally joining the club for the 2007/08 season. In 2008, a spell in America with St. Louis Athletica and Atlanta Beat beckoned before Aluko signed for Sky Blue FC in 2010. The striker then returned to the British Isles last season to represent Birmingham City in the FA WSL. Chelsea Ladies' new number 9 boasts 63 caps for England's women's team and played for her country's Under-19s and Under-21s side before rising to the senior ranks in 2004 aged only 17. During her time with England, Aluko has played in two World Cups and helped the side to victory in the Cyprus Cup in 2012 before joining Team GB for the Olympic Games. Aluko is the first new signing under Emma Hayes' reign as Chelsea Ladies' manager. http://www.chelseafc.com/news-article/article/3001890/title/aluko-signs-for-chelsea-ladies
Certainly a talented family, she did a law degree whilst in the States, and apparently helped her brother with the Ranger issue and us. Good luck to her, she certainly can play the game, and a good signing for Chelsea.
Not really. Loads of other players had already done it, and the process of us signing him was no quicker than they experienced. I think I'd have just called the thread "Aluko signs for Chelsea".
One Waggy you are a wag. I was trying to get Terry's mob and Chelsea ladies linked. Forgot all about powder puff Torres.
