Toronto, ON (January 14, 2025) - AFC Toronto is thrilled to announce the signing of
goalkeeper Sofia Manner (27) from the reigning National Women's Soccer League (NWSL)
champions Orlando Pride for an undisclosed fee.

Standing at 6-foot-1, Manner brings a commanding presence to AFC Toronto’s back line. The
Finland native looks to the Northern Super League for her next chapter after spending the last
year developing her skills in the United States.
 

“Signing a player with Sofia’s experience benefits us immensely as we build our roster and our
culture in 2025,” said Billy Wilson, AFC Toronto Sporting Director. “Her physical stature is a
massive asset; she’s used to dealing with direct play and supports attacks by building out from
the back. Being part of a winning organization with Orlando, she knows what it takes to compete
at the highest professional level and we’re excited to welcome her to our club.”
