Despite Morgan’s eye-popping resume, she had only had a few good seasons in the NWSL as an individual despite her move to San Diego Wave FC for their debut season.
With 20 goals for Wave FC across all competitions last year, she won her first career NWSL Golden Boot and was selected to the Best XI for the first time in her career.
She is under contract to San Diego for 2023, but in terms of availability, this season might be very different for her and the club. Even though she missed a month on international duty this season, she’ll be on the plane to New Zealand and Australia for the 2023 World Cup if she stays healthy.
Casey Stoney will have to find alternative ways to get goals if she goes to the World Cup, but they know it’s possible. Meanwhile, Morgan should be productive for Wave FC for as long as she is on the field.
