The Orlando Pride have another roster hole to fill after sending the rights to fullback Ali Riley to Angel City FC in exchange for the expansion side’s natural third-round selection in 2023 and $15,000 in Allocation Money. Riley was out of contract after the 2021 season but the Pride had offered her a new contract for 2022. Now the Los Angeles native is going home after today’s deal.
“On behalf of the club, I want to personally thank Ali for her time, effort, and energy throughout her stay in Orlando,” Orlando Pride General Manager Ian Fleming said in a club press release.
