On Thursday, NJ/NY Gotham FC announced the acquisition of 20-year-old midfielder Jaedyn Shaw via a trade from the North Carolina Courage. The team sent $1.25 million in intra-league transfer funds to facilitate the move. The club also announced that the two sides are working towards a contract extension, which ESPN reports will see the player re-sign through 2029.
When speaking on the Full Time podcast from The Athletic, Gotham general manager Yael Averbuch West said that the club had "asked a number of times about Jaedyn, and always heard a no, but we decided we wanted to be pretty aggressive about what we were willing to offer.
