Chloe Kelly Wants to Leave Manchester City
Chloe Kelly, the star of England’s EURO 2022 win, isn’t happy with how Manchester City has handled her situation. The 27-year-old forward said she can’t see her future at the club anymore. She’s tired of dealing with negative behavior directed at her.

Kelly Says Her Future Isn’t with City
On social media Wednesday night, Kelly confirmed that her contract ends this season. She knows she will not be at Manchester City anymore. She mentioned that she tried to handle things privately, but with people talking publicly about her, she wanted to share her side.
She said, “I can’t control someone’s negative behavior towards me. But I can control how long I choose to deal with it.”
Kelly thanked her teammates and fans for their support. But she repeated that she will leave when her contract is up in June.
Frustration with Transfer Rules
Kelly joined City from Everton in 2020 and helped win the FA Cup in the 2019-20 season. Now, she’s focused on the European Championship in Switzerland. She wants to be in the best shape to play for England, which she’s very proud of.
But she’s frustrated with the limits on her move. She doesn’t like being told which teams she can or can’t join. This makes her feel bad about her career and mental health.
“It’s gone on too long. It’s disappointing and just isn’t right,” she said. It shows that even as women’s sports grow, players can still feel stuck. Manchester City Star Chloe Kelly Wants Out.
Speaking Up for Change
Kelly talked about the need to highlight the struggles players face behind the scenes. She pointed out that while players dedicate themselves to their sport, their dreams can get crushed while no one notices.
“I am human, and I will keep giving my all to the game I love. In the end, I just want to be happy again, she said.
