Seattle Reign FC announced today that they have signed Spanish international defender/midfielder Celia Jiménez Delgado to a contract for the 2019 NWSL season.
“Signing with Reign FC to compete in the NWSL is a dream come true,” said Jiménez in a team release. “I am excited to become the best player I can be to help my team reach their 2019 season goals.”
Jiménez was selected by Seattle in the fourth round of the 2018 NWSL College Draft, but stayed at the University of Alabama until June 2018 to complete her degree in aerospace engineering.
