Does anyone know how the transfer fee works? Does Naomi get a share of it or does it all go to her ex-club?

All goes to the ex-club, though players can negotiate a signing bonus.

Her debut at Chelsea is off to an inauspicious start, I'm afraid.

She was taken off the field in her first game.  No details on the extent of the injury.
