Houston Dash Transfer Tarciane to Lyon in Record-Breaking Deal

The Brazilian defender's move to Olympique Lyonnais Féminin marks one of the highest transfer fees in NWSL history.

The Houston Dash announced the transfer of 21-year-old Brazilian defender Tarciane to Olympique Lyonnais Féminin for a team-record fee, which is among the highest in NWSL history.
Tarciane joined the Dash in April 2024 from Corinthians and made 11 appearances during the 2024 season, debuting in a 3-0 win over North Carolina Courage.
She was part of Brazil's silver medal-winning squad at the 2024 Paris Olympics, further solidifying her reputation as a rising talent in women's soccer.
Houston Dash President Angela Hucles Mangano emphasized the historic nature of the transfer and the club's commitment to reinvesting in the roster for long-term competitiveness.
The transfer comes at a time when the Houston Dash are reportedly navigating a potential sale of the club.
