NWSL MVP Chawinga pens new 3-year deal with Kansas

“This year, we hope to bring the trophy home for the fans, for KC,” Chawinga said. “My team has been good to me and they treated me well last season. My teammates are kind, my coach is amazing, and my KC community has been incredible. All the support, it feels like home here, that’s why I decided to extend my contract with the KC Current.”

Chawinga wasn’t able to add a winner’s medal to her collection last season, with Current losing 3-2 in the playoff semifinal to eventual winners Orlando Pride.

“Securing Temwa’s long-term future in Kansas City was a significant priority this offseason,” general manager Caitlin Carducci said.

“She had an amazing debut season, but both Temwa and our club feel that we are just getting started in reaching our potential together. We’re excited to see her wearing the Current crest for years to come.”
