Banyana Midfielder Linda Motlhalo Signs One Year Deal With USA's Houston Dash
Banyana Midfielder Linda Motlhalo Signs One Year Deal With USA’s Houston Dash! The 19 year old’s future looks bright after landing herself a new deal with the American club. Houston Dash play in the National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL).
The SA U20 Women’s National Team joins Banyana captain Janine van Wyk at the US club. This comes after her impressive performance at the 2016 Rio Olympics, where she was part of the Banyana Banyana squad under Vera Pauw, who is now the head coach of Houston Dash.
“Linda is one of the most promising talents of women’s football at this moment. Her qualities compliment the talent we have on our roster. She will bring variety in our attack and that will bring the best out of the other players. She can balance our team,” said Pauw.
She is expected to leave for Houston Dash at the beginning of March – pending receipt of her P-1 Visa and International Transfer Certificate.
