Liverpool FC has made a significant addition to their women's squad by securing Scottish midfielder Sam Kerr on a permanent basis. Kerr, who spent the latter half of the 2024-25 season on loan from Bayern Munich, has signed a two-year contract with the Reds.

Kerr's Impact at Liverpool

During her loan spell, Kerr made an immediate impact, starting in 14 games and contributing crucial performances that solidified her place in the team. Her versatility and experience in top-tier football were evident as she adapted seamlessly to the Women's Super League (WSL).

A Proven Winner

Kerr is no stranger to success. Before her stint at Liverpool, she was instrumental in Bayern Munich's Frauen Bundesliga title win. Her career also boasts five Scottish Women's Premier League titles with Rangers and Glasgow City, showcasing her ability to perform at the highest level.

Kerr's Commitment to Liverpool

Reflecting on her decision to join Liverpool permanently, Kerr expressed her enthusiasm:

"I knew after a couple of months that I was really loving it here. When Liverpool offered me the chance to stay, there wasn’t even a second thought. I wanted to do this and I wanted to stay."

Liverpool's Busy Transfer Window

Kerr's signing is part of Liverpool's broader strategy to strengthen their squad. On the same day, the club also secured Rafaela Borggrafe, a talented German goalkeeper from SC Freiburg. Borggrafe, who was on the standby list for Germany's Euro 2025 squad, will compete with Rachael Laws and Faye Kirby for the starting position.

Managerial Changes Ahead

Liverpool's women's team is currently without a manager following the departure of Matt Beard last season. The club is reportedly considering Gareth Taylor, former Manchester City manager, as a leading candidate to take over the reins.

Looking Ahead

With Kerr's signing and other strategic moves, Liverpool is positioning itself as a strong contender in the WSL. Fans can expect an exciting season as the team aims to climb the league table and challenge for silverware.
