Manchester City forward Chloe Kelly has released an emotional statement asking to be granted her wish to leave the club in search of first-team football.
Kelly has only played a six times in the Women’s Super League for City this season, and with the Euros in the summer, she is desperate to remain in action.
In a statement posted to Instagram, she said she is resigned to leaving City at the end of her contract this summer, but said the situation is having “a huge impact on not only my career but my mental wellbeing.”
Kelly’s statement comes just a day before transfer deadline day in the WSL. Sources have told ESPN that Manchester United remain keen to sign Kelly on loan, but City are reluctant to let her leave for their rivals and another side in the mix at the top of the table.
