Deyna Castellanos will begin her professional soccer career in 2020, it just won’t be in the National Women’s Soccer League.
After a decorated career at Florida State University, Castellanos confirmed Thursday that she had signed a contract with Spain-based Atlético de Madrid Femenino through the 2022 season.
The club plays in Spain’s top division in women’s soccer and also competes in the UEFA women’s Champions League.
“Glad for the decision to reach a leading club in women’s football and very excited to reach a dressing room full of talent and personality,” Castellanos wrote in a tweet on Thursday, according to a Google translation.
