Tottenham have been handed a boost ahead of their Women’s Super League match against Chelsea on Thursday as Shelina Zadorsky has extended her stay.
The star has triggered the clause to remain at the club a further year and will help the team try to secure a Champions League spot this season. Spurs are 11 points outside of the top three spots which means they have to win all of their remaining matches and hope Manchester United and Manchester City drop points.
The side have drastically improved under manager Rehanne Skinner with many fans not predicting Spurs would be challenging for European football this campaign. It’s this drive which has kept Zadorsky at the club.
She said: “Working with a club that wants to keep building a winning culture is so exciting to me. Working with Rehanne and the rest of our staff has made me a better player and I want to keep growing. It’s a huge honour to play for the club.”
But will she play against Chelsea and how can fans watch? Here’s all you need to know.
