Center back Amy Turner’s stay in Orlando turned out to be a short one. The Pride announced today that the club has bought out the 30-year-old defender’s contract and she is free to join another team. This has apparently been approved by the league, despite an imposed roster freeze on the Pride during the investigation into whether Head Coach Amanda Cromwell and/or Assistant Coach Sam Greene have violated the NWSL’s policy against discrimination, harassment, and bullying.
“On behalf of the Pride organization, we’d like to thank Amy for her contributions to the club and wish her the best of luck moving forward,” Orlando Pride General Manager Ian Fleming said in a club press release.
