Alex Morgan’s Retirement
Morgan played her last professional match on September 8, where she was honored for her career. Many fans were surprised when she was not selected for the 2024 Paris Olympics, marking her first official tournament absence since the 2008 Olympics. At 35, Morgan felt it was time to start a new chapter, especially with her second pregnancy on the way. In 2016, she graced the cover of the FIFA 16 video game alongside Lionel Messi.
The Alex Morgan Foundation supports women and young people in achieving their dreams in sports and life. While soccer fans will miss her on the field, Morgan is poised to find success in this new stage of her career.
