Bay FC acquires Argentina national team captain Aldana Cometti via international transfer

Bay FC’s defense got a big boost Wednesday when the team acquired standout center back Aldana Cometti from French Premiere Ligue club FC Fleury for an undisclosed fee.

The Argentina National Team captain joins Bay FC on a two-year contract through 2027 with a team option for 2028 and will be added to the club’s roster following receipt of her P-1 visa and international transfer clearance.

    “We are thrilled to welcome Aldana Cometti to Bay FC,” said first-year Bay FC coach Emma Coates. “She is a commanding defender who brings a wealth of experience on the world stage. Her presence, professionalism, and leadership make her another important addition to our squad, and we’re excited to see the positive impact she’ll have both on and off the pitch.”

    Cometti, who turned 30 on Tuesday, comes stateside with over a decade of experience in top-flight and international football, featuring at the club level in her native Argentina, Colombia, Spain and France.

    She competed in Colombia with Atletico Huila and in Spain with Grenada, Sevilla, Levante, and Madrid CFF. At Madrid, she was teammates with Bay FC forward Racheal Kundananji from 2022-2024. With Huila in 2018, she won the 2018 Copa Libertadores title, South America’s vaunted continental championship. She joined FC Fleury in France ahead of the club’s current season.

    “Coming to Bay FC is a challenge that truly motivates me,” said Cometti. “The NWSL is one of the most competitive leagues in the world, and I want to test myself here while helping the team grow. I hope to bring leadership, organization and intensity to the back line, and to support my teammates in every moment.”
