Loza Abera has signed for Tedeschi&Partners. 
The Ethiopian captain and prolific striker for DC Power has signed a two-year contract. Loza’s signing further underscores Tedeschi&Partners Women’s commitment to expanding its reach from Europe to North and Central America. With the creation of the Gainbridge Super League (USL S) two years ago, the United States has reshaped the international football landscape, prompting our agency to delve ever deeper into US football. Following the transfer of our Mylena Freitas from SC Braga in Portugal to Brooklyn, the signing of the formidable centre-back/wing-back Adrienne Jordan, who spent last season at Fort Lauderdale, and Phoebe Canoles, who also played for DC Power last year, Loza joins the ever-growing roster of athletes in the United States. The agency’s expansion plan will see the opening of our second US office, following the one in New York, scheduled for Miami by the end of 2026.
