She was an important player at Barça, where she played for two years, winning seven titles, including two Champions Leagues.
“Being a Chelsea player is a bit surreal. I’m really happy to be back in England. My family are really happy to be able to watch more of my games,” she said.
Bronze, a former Manchester City, Liverpool and Lyon player, has 125 caps for the England national team, with which she won the Women’s Euro 2022.
Chelsea have won the last five editions of the English Premier League.
