The North Carolina Courage acquired veteran midfielder Victoria Pickett from Gotham FC on Thursday in exchange for $200,000 in allocation money.
Pickett, 26, has played in three matches (one start) this season with Gotham.
“We are excited to add Victoria to our club. She is someone we’ve noticed since her rookie year and always felt she can have a great impact on any team,” Courage coach Sean Nahas said. “She has great technical quality and comfort on the ball with a strong ability to dribble. She’s a player we feel can help us in all phases of the game and someone who can come in and help us to continue building something special.”
Pickett has appeared in 45 NWSL games (36 starts) with the Kansas City Current (2021-22) and Gotham. She was a Rookie of the Year finalist in 2021.
