ORLANDO, Fla. (Nov. 10, 2026) – The Orlando Pride and defender Kylie Nadaner have agreed to a new contract through the end of the 2027 NWSL season with a mutual option for 2028, it was announced today.
"Kylie has been an integral part of this Club since day one and consistently sets the standard for what it means to represent the Orlando Pride," said Orlando Pride Vice President of Soccer Operations and General Manager Caitlin Carducci. "She is the glue of our Club, bringing people together through her leadership, professionalism and commitment, and her impact extends far beyond the field. Her return this season reflected the resilience and determination that define her, and we're proud that she will remain part of our organization."
Since joining the Pride midway through the 2021 season, Nadaner has made 109 appearances across all competitions, fourth-most in Club history. Only teammates Marta and Haley McCutcheon have made more appearances for Orlando across all competitions. Across her six seasons with the Club, Nadaner has recorded five goal contributions, scoring two goals and adding three assists. During the 2026 campaign, the defender returned to action following maternity leave and made two appearances across all competitions.
A cornerstone of Orlando's backline, Nadaner played a key role in helping the Pride capture both the 2024 NWSL Shield and 2024 NWSL Championship. She contributed to a defensive unit that recorded 13 clean sheets during the regular season and set a league record at the time for the most shutouts in a single campaign. Her performances during the historic season also earned her a finalist nomination for NWSL Defender of the Year.
Prior to joining the Pride, Nadaner spent nearly four seasons in Europe with Atlético Madrid and Sparta Prague. During her time with the Spanish side, she made 29 appearances, scored two goals and competed in the UEFA Women's Champions League. At Sparta Prague, Nadaner scored 19 goals in 36 appearances across all competitions and helped the club secure back-to-back Czech First Division and Czech Women's Cup doubles. The Endicott, New York, native began her professional career with former NWSL side Boston Breakers in 2016, following a standout collegiate career at Boston University, where she made 86 appearances and scored 14 goals for the Terriers.
