If Marta fulfills her contract, which extends over 2026, she will have made ten seasons in Orlando.

She scored eleven goals when the club won both the regular season and the playoffs last season, which was Orlando's first title.

Marta left Damallsvenskan Rosengård in 2017 for Orlando and has also won seven Swedish Championship titles with both Umeå and Tyresö in Sweden.

The Brazilian has been named the world's best player on the women's side six times. She has played six World Championships and six Olympic Games for Brazil, which took silver in Paris last summer. Then, the 38-year-old said it was her last national team season.
