Boston Legacy FC has officially unveiled Nigerian international striker Gift Monday following her transfer from fellow National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL) side Washington Spirit.
The 24-year-old forward has signed a five-year contract with Boston Legacy FC and will wear the number 22 jersey at her new club.
Boston Legacy announced Monday’s signing on October 6, with Washington Spirit reportedly receiving a transfer fee of $500,000, alongside a 20 per cent sell-on clause.
Monday joined Washington Spirit from Spanish club UD Tenerife in March 2025 and quickly established herself as one of the notable attacking talents in the American women’s league.
The Super Falcons forward made history in September 2025 when she scored a hat-trick in 35 minutes and 52 seconds against Houston Dash, setting an NWSL record for the fastest hat-trick from kickoff.
Her impressive performances in the United States have further enhanced her reputation as one of Nigeria’s promising attacking talents.
Monday will now aim to maintain her impressive form and make a significant contribution to Boston Legacy FC as the club prepares for its next chapter in the NWSL
