Brazil forward Marta has extended her stay with the NWSL‘s Orlando Pride, putting pen to paper on a new contract that will see her stay in Florida until the end of the 2026 season.
The Pride lifted the NWSL championship for the first time in 2024 — with Marta scoring the decisive goal in the semifinal against the Kansas City Current.
The 38-year-old joined Orlando in 2017 and has made 128 appearances for the franchise, scoring 42 goals.
“Coming off the most successful season in our club’s history and, personally, one of the best of her professional career, re-signing Marta was a key business priority for us during this offseason,” Orlando Pride’s sporting director Haley Carter said.
“The impact she has made on our team, our locker room and our community is evident, of course through her incredible skill as a player, but even more so through her selfless and exemplary leadership style.”
