Naomi Girma: Chelsea sign USA defender for world record fee

Chelsea have completed the signing of USA defender Naomi Girma for a world record fee.

The 24-year-old has signed a contract until summer 2029 after the Women’s Super League leaders this week agreed to pay San Diego Wave about £900,000.

It exceeds the £685,000 Bay FC paid for Zambia’s Racheal Kundananji last February.

Chelsea set the British transfer record when they signed Mayra Ramirez for £384,000 in January 2024.

Girma is Chelsea’s first signing of the January transfer window after they fought off competition from Lyon.
