Written by Oluwaseun Oyediji
The Orlando Pride might not have landed Debinha, but they still added an exciting Brazilian star this week, signing forward Adriana to a three-year deal.
More Details
The 26-year-old is a former “Prêmio Craque do Brasileirão” (Player of the Year) with Brazilian side Corinthians.
She has scored 12 goals in her international career thus far, including five goals at last year’s Copa America Femenina.
The Pride reportedly paid $100,000 in transfer fees, with an additional $20,000 if Adriana makes Brazil’s 2023 World Cup roster, marking one of the largest transfer fees in Brazil women’s club soccer history.
