Congratulations to Academy player Renae Kemal who has signed for Chelsea!

The 11-year-old, has put pen to paper at Stamford Bridge after impressing during a trial period.

SEFA Head of Academy Lee Juggins said, “Renae has really kicked on since coming into SEFA, with her desire to improve pushing her up through our Academy tiers.

“She always comes out of her session smiling and happy, and that is something we love to see from all of our players.

“We are delighted to see Renae’s hard work be the catalyst for her to take this exciting next step – joining one of the very best women’s clubs in world football.”

Renae’s mum Danielle added, “For a long while we looked for an academy with a high level of training and coaching; we found Soccer Elite on recommendation and were over the moon with the level of coaching, the training drills, the technical side and game-related scenarios.

“Renae loved it, she looked forward to every session and has benefited from all aspects of the training that the academy has provided for her.”

All at Soccer Elite FA wish Renae all the best as she embarks on this exciting new chapter in her footballing development!
