Angel City Makes $65,000 Trade Move Amid Recent 2025 NWSL Roster Release

We hope all 14 NWSL teams are locked and loaded for the 2025 campaign. Just one more night’s sleep before fans get to witness the official kickoff of the new season. However, even with little time left before they take the pitch, Angel City doesn’t seem to be done yet. After announcing their final roster for the year, they also secured a surprise $65,000 trade.

Hold your horses; it’s not a player that they have signed. Instead, the Los Angeles-based club has paid this amount to rivals Racing Louisville and bought their 2025 international roster spot. Already, ACFC had 7 international spots, but having bought this, they now have 8, out of which only four are in use.  

On the other hand, Racing has two un-filled international roster slots remaining. 

Likewise, they have also released their official roster for the 2025 campaign.

Goalkeepers: Angelina Anderson, Breanna Norris, Hannah Stambaugh

Defenders: Elizabeth Eddy, Vanessa Gilles (INTL-CAN, ON LOAN), Sarah Gorden, Hannah Johnson, Savy King, Miyabi Moriya (INTL-JPN), Megan Reid, Ali Riley (SEI), Gisele Thompson, M.A. Vignola

Midfielders: Jun Endo (SEI, INTL-JPN), Kennedy Fuller, Madison Hammond, Macey Hodge, Alanna Kennedy (INTL-AUS), Lily Nabet, Katie Zelem (INTL-ENG)

Forwards: Julie Dufour (INTL-FRA), Claire Emslie, Sydney Leroux, Maithé López (INTL-COL, ON LOAN), Casey Phair (U18), Christen Press, Alyssa Thompson, Riley Tiernan
