Fran Kirby is a legend! Lionesses star sends message to Chelsea squad after bringing up impressive milestone with cameo off the bench in Blues' huge WSL victory over West Ham

Kirby has been at Chelsea for just over nine years, and the Lionesses legend marked her 200th appearance with the club during her cameo against West Ham. She joined the Blues in 2015 from her childhood side Reading for a reported fee of between £40,000 and £60,000 which constituted a British record at the time.

After the game, Kirby posted on X: "Extremely proud to have made my 200th appearance. Thank you to the girls for their support."

The 30-year-old is the club's top scorer in their history with 115 strikers to her name. She also holds the record for the most assists in Chelsea's history and boasts a host of personal awards to her name, having battled back from injuries, illness and personal difficulties during her legendary career.

The Lionesses star's current deal with Chelsea expires at the end of this season, and she has revealed that there hasn't been much conversation between her and the club regarding an extension. Regardless, the 30-year-old will remain important to Emma Hayes' plans in her final season at the helm of the club.
