The Spirit have been one of, if not the, most active NWSL side this offseason. They signed Barcelona Femeni boss Jonatan Giraldez on a pre-contract agreement to join them in the summer, while also bringing in a plethora of players, including USWNT veteran Casey Kreuger. During the 2024 NWSL draft, they made a handful of trades, which brought them six new draft picks to bring into the squad as well. Most notably, though, they traded star midfielder and USWNT player Ashley Sanchez to the North Carolina Courage for the fifth overall pick in the draft and $250,000 in allocation money.
