THE BIGGER PICTURE
Shaw, 20, is one of the most decorated young players in American soccer. She worked her way into the San Diego Wave first team as a teenager, and helped the Southern California side to the NWSL Shield and NWSL Challenge Cup in 2023.
The attacking midfielder was also a member of the USWNT team that secured a Gold Medal at the Paris Olympics last summer – giving Gotham four players of that team.
