Chelsea is delighted to announce that an option to extend Guro Reiten’s contract until 2026 has been triggered.

Since joining from LSK Kvinner in her native Norway in 2019, the 30-year-old has established herself as a key component to the Blues’ success. She has played a pivotal role in helping the club win five Women’s Super League titles, three FA Cups, two League Cups, and the Community Shield.

A versatile left-footed player, Reiten has made 177 appearances for Chelsea to date and recently surpassed 50 goals scored, reaching the milestone in a UEFA Champions League match against FC Twente.

Reiten is the third top goalscorer in our current squad and our fifth all-time top scorer in the WSL with 35 goals in 102 appearances, having recently reached the century landmark against Manchester United in November 2024.

Last season, she enjoyed a strong end to the campaign as the Blues lifted a fifth consecutive league trophy. A standout display against Bristol City saw Reiten score four goals in an emphatic 8-0 win, a victory which helped put the club in pole position to retain our WSL title.

The Norway international’s contributions on the pitch have been acknowledged with a number of individual accolades since her move to London.

In 2022, she won the Norwegian Golden Ball and was named in the PFA Team of the Year for the 2021/22 and 2022/23 seasons, while also being nominated for the prestigious Ballon d’Or.

This season, Reiten won November’s WSL Player of the Month award and was also included in the 77-player shortlist for The Best FIFA Women's XI.

On the international stage, Reiten has represented her country at two European Championships and two World Cups. She has scored 21 goals for Norway – who she has also captained on several occasions - and is closing in on 100 appearances.

Everyone at Chelsea wishes to congratulate Guro and we look forward to seeing her continue to thrive in blue.
