Washington Spirit and U.S. women’s national team forward Crystal Dunn has signed with Chelsea Ladies FC. Dunn signed a contract that lasts until 2018. She will not be returning to the Spirit next season.
The Spirit drafted Dunn in 2014 and Dunn excelled for the club, particularly in 2015 when she scored 15 goals. While Dunn didn’t make the 2015 World Cup roster, she was part of the 2016 Olympic roster.
Dunn’s departure is the latest in a series of trades and exits that have stripped the Spirit of many key players that helped lead the club to the NWSL Championship last fall.
