Wasn't sure where to put it. According to the Belgian press has Nicky Evrard from OHL signed for the Chelsea Woman's team. She just won the Golden Boot in Belgiuml last week. Which is an Award given after every Calendar year for the best player in the country.  Tessa Wullaert who used to play for City came second. 

Evrard is the first female goalkeeper to win it. 

According to the Belgian Media will she join at the end of the season when her contract expires. 

It will be exiting for me to see a Belgian lady in the squad. Did we ever had one? 

Goalkeeper. Golden boot. Did she start playing upfront, score from her own penalty area or is some of this information wrong?

No. Golden boot is the name of the award for the best football player of the calendar year. This is not the topscorer. Well literally teanslated it's Golden Shoe. The winner literally gets a golden shoe. Doesnt matter what position you play.

Maybe there is only a verbal agreement and nothing signed yet?

That makes more sense! After Musovic’s display at the weekend maybe a new keeper is in order though I’m not sure why Berger has been dropped?

As mentioned before. Official now.
