Today, Racing Louisville signed former CSKA Moskow forward Sh’Nia Gordon. FIFA’s recent ruling that allowed foreign players to void their deals with Russian clubs facilitated her move back to the US. It’s not easy to find any video from Sh’Nia from her time at CSKA Moscow but her time at West Virginia is fairly well documented.

She was the second most expensive transfer in the 2021 transfer window (behind Nikita Parris’ move to Arsenal) moving from Dijon FCO in France.

Racing has several attacking players, so giving Sh’Nia a two-year contract speaks pretty well of her talent and potential. She is expected in Louisville by Friday, but a debut in the second or third Challenge Cup match is more likely.
