NEW YORK (July 1, 2025) – The National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL) has announced the list of players eligible for the league’s 2026 free agency period that opened at 12:01 a.m. ET on Tuesday, July 1.
In accordance with the league’s collective bargaining agreement with the NWSL Players Association, all players, regardless of service years, whose contracts expire at the conclusion of the 2025 NWSL season may begin negotiations for their 2026 Standard Player Agreements.
At the opening of the free agency window, teams may negotiate contract terms with any free agent. A player or player agent may also solicit discussion. If a player does not receive a new offer, the player remains a free agent with their rights unassigned in the NWSL. A player may agree to terms with their current team, or a new team, at any time.
The list of 2026 free agents is available below.
