The Maryland-based team announced on their Twitter handle that they have signed the Nigerian international and the 21-year-old could not contain her happiness at making the move that would see her ply her trade in the women’s top flight.

 

She said: “I am happy, it’s a dream come true for me because I have been longing to play in the NWSL. I am looking forward to playing the rest of my career in the US and spending the rest of my life there”.

 

“The contract is for just the 2015 season, but I am keeping an open mind to see how it goes. I may renew at the end of the season. That will however, depend on lots of factors but I am hoping everything will go well”

 

Ordega is expected to join the NWSL side after the return leg of the All Africa Games qualifier against Mali and assured that she will join the Falcons at the World Cup in Canada because the release clause was included in her contract.

 

The NWSL’s third campaign is set to kick-off on April 10 and concludes on September 6.
