Trinity Rodman, the US national team forward, has signed a new three-year contract to stay with Washington Spirit and will be the NWSL’s highest-paid player.
The record deal is worth more than $2m annually, including bonuses, and ends months of uncertainty around the 23-year-old’s future. Her previous contract – a $1.1m, four-year deal – expired in December and she was understood to have received lucrative offers from Europe, which the Spirit were unable to initially match under the NWSL’s salary cap rules.
