Aston Villa has announced the departure of Canadian forward Adriana Leon to the NWSL's San Diego Wave. Despite the transfer window closing in Europe, the U.S. clubs are active ahead of the 2025 season. Leon, who previously played for Manchester United and has made 37 appearances for Villa, will join San Diego on a two-year contract with an option for a third year. Her transfer depends on obtaining her P-1 Visa and International Transfer Certificate. Leon expressed excitement about her new opportunity, while the Wave's GM highlighted her skills and potential impact on the team.
I'm incredibly excited to join San Diego Wave FC and can't wait to get to work with my new teammates. This is a Club with big ambitions.
Adriana is a fantastic addition to our team, bringing a dynamic attacking presence and a wealth of experience at the highest levels.
