Former Corinthians striker Adriana is announced as a reinforcement for Marta’s team in the USA

One of the great Corinthians players in recent years, striker Adriana has a new home. This Thursday, the Orlando Pride, the team in the United States where Marta plays, agreed to hire the player, who is also a highlight of the Brazilian national team. The announcement took place through the Florida club’s social media.

“Welcome Adriana. We have acquired Adriana, Brazil forward, on a three-year deal,” Orlando Pride wrote in Twitter posts. In one of them, the club called her a “witch” because of her goals for Corinthians and Brazil.

Shortly after, the player herself spoke her first words as a reinforcement of the team. “Hey guys! Passing by to say that I am very happy to have signed with Orlando Pride. It is such a special club and I am also very excited to face this next challenge. And that it will be a very successful season and many titles. We are together !”

Adriana, 26 years old, signed a contract until the end of this year with Orlando Pride, which agreed to pay an undisclosed amount to Corinthians. The alvinegro club only informed that this is the biggest sale made in the history of Timão’s women’s football.

In four seasons in total at Corinthians, Adriana played 143 games, scored 72 goals and won nine titles. The striker is the fifth player to leave the alvinegro club this season. The others were Kemelli, Juliete, Bianca Gomes and Mylena.
