Macario signs with French giants Lyon
Catarina Macario is officially a pro.
Currently in camp with the U.S. women's national team, Macario has signed a two and a half year with French giants Olympique Lyonnais, the club announced on the eve of the NWSL Draft.
Macario announced last week her intentions to leave Stanford ahead of the scheduled spring 2021 campaign.
"It’s an honor for me to have signed with such an amazing club," Macario said in a statement. "I am really looking forward joining the team and continuing to build on the legacy of success.”
