WSL Full-Time were informed of the news via an official club press release from The Blues this afternoon.
Alber will officially join Chelsea when she becomes a free agent on 1 July 2025.
The 19-year-old has spent her entire senior career to date with TSG 1899 Hoffenheim. She initially turned out for the club’s B Team before going on to impress in the first team. The player can operate in any position across the front-line.
On the international stage, Alber has represented Germany up to and including Under-20 level.
After completing her move to Chelsea, Alber said “I feel proud to have signed for Chelsea. It is a special moment for me because it is such a big club and I am really happy to have this opportunity. I am a player who has worked really hard up until this point and I am someone who always gives 100 percent every day in training and in every match I play – I just love football so much.”
Alber is Chelsea’s second signing of the summer transfer window. The Blues have also signed Swiss goalkeeper Livia Peng on a free transfer.
