Lucy Bronze will leave Barcelona when her contract expires on Sunday after spending two years with the Catalan club, winning seven trophies during her time in Spain.
However, Chelsea will face stiff competition for Bronze's signature as the 32-year-old has already had offers from several major clubs.
Bronze is known as one of the women's game's best defenders and has won 123 caps for England, which puts her sixth on the all-time appearance makers list for the Lionesses.
The England international defender is departing Spain after playing 70 games across two seasons for Barcelona. The 32-year-old won two European titles, two league titles and three domestic cups in her time at Barcelona.
Before joining Barcelona, Bronze had two spells at Manchester City either side of a three-year stint at French club Lyon. She also had spells at Sunderland, Everton and Liverpool.
