The Boston Breakers have signed 27-year-old midfielder Amanda DaCosta after acquiring her from the Chicago Red Stars in exchange for their third and fourth-round picks in the 2017 college draft.
DaCosta was once a Boston Breaker during WPSL Elite in 2012, the year that bridged WPS and NWSL.
After WPSL Elite, DaCosta played for Matt Beard at Liverpool and has appeared for the Portuguese Women’s National Team. She has also seen time for the US youth teams.
“During our time at Liverpool she was a key player for me,” Beard said via team press release.
