Lauren James became a global star at the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup but she has long sparkled in Chelsea blue. James trained with Chelsea when she was just six-years-old, but was snapped up by London rivals Arsenal aged 13 and became the club’s second-youngest debutant in 2017. She spent three seasons at Manchester United before re-joining Chelsea in 2021, and penned a new deal in June 2023.
