Gotham FC signed 20-year-old midfielder Jaedyn Shaw to a contract extension, locking her in through the 2029 season, the club announced Thursday.

The deal shows the confidence Gotham has in Shaw, a 2024 Olympic gold medalist, being a vital part of its core group, alongside Esther Gonzalez, Jaelin Howell and Tierna Davidson, all of whom are signed through 2027, according to Spotrac.

Rose Lavelle’s current deal expires after next season.

Gotham general manager and head of soccer operations Yael Averbuch West said she’s “thrilled” to have Shaw with Gotham for the next four years.
