Chelsea will not sanction striker Sam Kerr in the wake of her court case, the English club's manager Sonia Bompastor said. The Australia captain on Tuesday was found not guilty of racially abusing a British police officer after a dispute with a cab driver two years ago.

The Guardian understands the 31-year-old Australia captain is close to making her return for Chelsea for the first time since rupturing her anterior cruciate ligament during Chelsea’s warm weather training camp in January 2024, though it is expected that will not come before the international break at the end of this month.
