There was little doubt that U.S. women's national legend Christen Press would leave her hometown club of Angel City FC this offseason, and yet, as the days ticked by until pre-season fans were starting to get concerned.
On Friday, ACFC announced that Press had signed a new one-year contract until the end of the 2025 National Women's Soccer League (NWSL) season. A historic figure in the world of soccer, she holds a special place in Los Angeles soccer history too. In 2022, the 36-year-old became the first-ever player in the expansion team's history.
