Chelsea captain Magdalena Eriksson will leave the club after nearly six years when her contract expires this summer.

Eriksson, who joined Chelsea from Linkopings in 2017, has been the club captain since 2019.

"It's with a heavy heart and so many emotions I announce that my journey as a Blue will come to an end," said Eriksson.

"I see myself as extremely privileged to have played a part in this great club's history."

Chelsea have two games remaining in the Women's Super League season and are challenging for a fourth consecutive league title.
