Chelsea Women have signed England youth international Nelly Las from Leicester City on a four-year deal for an undisclosed fee.
The attacking England Under-20 international full-back can play on both sides and is also capable of featuring as a wing-back.
Las signed her first professional contract in 2025 and, after making 14 appearances for Leicester in the WSL over the past two seasons, spent part of the 2025/26 campaign on loan at Ipswich Town.
The defender made in the Under-17 Euros Team of the Tournament as England finished runners-up, and also featured for the Young Lionesses at the U-17 World Cup later in 2024.
Las told chelseafc.com: “It feels absolutely amazing. It’s something you dream of since you start football, to sign for a team like Chelsea and to reach a level like this.”
“It is a dream come true to sign for Chelsea. I have been watching this team achieve success growing up, and to be here and signing for this club now, I have no words.”
