Canada international Ashley Lawrence has left Chelsea to join Lyon after two years at the club.

The 30-year-old won four trophies during her time at Chelsea, including the Women's Super League title in both seasons.

She made 60 appearances, scoring three goals and picking up eight assists as an attacking full-back.

Last season she featured 30 times for Chelsea and helped them win an unbeaten domestic Treble in manager Sonia Bompastor's first season.

Prior to joining Chelsea, Lawrence played for Paris St-Germain, ending Lyon's run of 14 successive French titles in 2021.

In return for Lawrence's departure, Chelsea are set to sign Lyon full-back Ellie Carpenter this summer.
