Orlando Pride and NWSL fans have been buzzing in recent days over rumors that Brazilian star Marta could be coming to the Sunshine State this season, and while the club has been pretty mum on the situation, Pride Head Coach Tom Sermanni met with the media in his first availability of the season at team medicals this morning and, of course, was asked about the rumors.
Sermanni didn’t want to comment on the Marta reports, but didn’t sidestep the question altogether.
“Is that a rumor? I haven’t heard that,” Sermanni said jokingly at Orlando Health’s Heart Institute, where Pride players underwent their season-opening physicals throughout the morning.
