Kelly ‘grateful’ to everyone that ‘wrote her off’
It was doubtful whether Chloe Kelly would make this England squad earlier this year.
Unhappy at her lack of playing time at Manchester City, she moved to Arsenal, but her tough start to the year had its happy ending on Sunday.
“There were a lot of tears at full-time, especially when I saw my family because those are the ones who got me through those dark moments. I am so grateful to be out the back end,” Kelly said.
“If that’s a story to tell someone that maybe experiencing something the same – tough times don’t last. Just around the corner was a Champions League final, won that, and now a Euros final, won that.
“So, thank you to everyone that wrote me off. I’m grateful.”
