Spirit and a WSL club rumored to be interested in Mariona Caldentey for the summer window...

I just can't get over thinking about a Barcelona player moving to Leesburg, VA in player housing lmao...literally nothing to do out there. (Kuikka turned them down because of it...)

I imagine Mariona Caldentey would select the “non player housing with stipend” option given who she is tbf lol

The commute could still be murder, though, and what would compensate for having to train at Segra Field?

Does that mean it's enough for a player to live in DC proper? From what I heard, it's not...Kuikka flew to DC to check out all options and Leesburg is where most (or all) players live, and (expectedly) it was pretty terrible and it was what made her decide against DC (despite being offered $$$.) Obv Caldentey is on a diff level and could prob easily pay for her own place in DC on her own. Regardless...kind of a funny scenario to think about. I laughed at something I heard Ashley Sanchez say about how leaving Spirit was actually nice because there was more to do in NC than in Leesburg lol.

Probably depends on how much she’s getting paid, but you could be right, idk. I figure someone coming from Barcelona wouldn’t looove living in far out suburban DC and would be paid enough so that she didn’t have to, but I suppose I could be wrong lol
