England women’s hero Chloe Kelly releases bombshell statement slamming ‘negative behaviour towards her’

ENGLAND women’s hero Chloe Kelly has released a bombshell statement slamming her own club’s “negative behaviour towards her.” The Manchester City star has featured just six times in the league this season. Kelly , 27, has seen game time dry up despite being an important figure in past campaigns.

And she has now declared she is eager to leave City ahead of tonight’s 11pm transfer deadline. The ace netted England’s winning goal in their Euro 2022 final win over Germany. Sarina Wiegman’s team will look to defend their trophy this summer in Switzerland.

For a long time, I've tried to work through professional challenges privately, not commenting publicly, but with my situation increasingly being debated in the public domain, I feel it's time to be open and transparent, and you heard it from my perspective. "A key lesson I have learned in my life is that, while I can't control someone's negative behaviour towards me, I can control how long I am prepared to tolerate it. "From day one, I've felt so much love from my team-mates and the fans.

With my contract expiring in June, I've accepted my future is not at this club beyond then. "With the Euros fast approaching, this summer is a huge one and I want to be in a position to give it my best shot to represent my country. Something which has always filled me with such pride and it is a true honour to do so.

"However, to be dictated whom I can and can't join with only four months left of the football season is having a huge impact on not only my career but my mental wellbeing. The situation has dragged on for too long, it's disappointing and not right. "I'm at a pivotal point in my life and my career is so important to me, and [it] is very disappointing that the sport we love can make you feel this way, especially after there's been so much growth in our sport.

"This is why I'm posting this, because I want to make you all aware that we as players dedicate our lives to our sport and our clubs but our dreams can be crushed while we live in silence. "I am human and I have and will give everything to the game that I love. Ultimately, I just want to be happy again.
