Copper Queens forward Prisca Chilufya moves to Angel City 

Copper Queens forward Prisca Chilufya has moved to Los Angeles based NWSL side Angel City from Orlando Pride, both clubs have confirmed. 

Chilufya makes the move from Florida to LA in a trade where the Pride will get $50,000 in 2025 intraleague transfer funds from Angel City FC. In addition the Pride will also have a 2025 international roster spot. 

“The Orlando Pride has received $50,000 in 2025 intraleague transfer funds from Angel City FC in exchange for forward Prisca Chilufya and a 2025 international roster spot, the Club announced today.”

Orlando Pride Vice President and Sporting Director,  Haley Carter has hailed Prisca Chilufya’s positive influence during her short stay at Orlando Pride. 

“Prisca has played an important role in the Club’s journey this season, both on and off the pitch,” She said.

“We are thankful for her contributions and her positive influence on her teammates and staff this season. She will always be a part of the Pride family and we wish her continued success in the future.”

Chilufya originally joined the Pride prior to the 2025 season via transfer from FC Juarez in Liga MX Feminil. 

While with the Club, the Zambian international has made 20 appearances, scored two goals and recorded one assist across all competitions.

Chilufya scored her first NWSL goal back on May 10 at North Carolina by heading in a corner kick in second half stoppage time to help rescue a point against the Courage. Her second goal for the Club also came as a late equalizer as she found the back of the net in the 72nd minute against the Utah Royals to help the Pride earn another point with a 1-1 draw on Aug. 3. 

Her lone assist for the Club came in Concacaf W Champions Cup play as she assisted a Julie Doyle finish en route to a 5-0 victory over Chorrillo FC last month.

While with FC Juarez, Chilufya scored 14 goals in 48 appearances since 2023. Prior to joining FC Juarez, she had a quick stint with Fatih Karagumruk of the TFF 1. Lig in the second tier of Turkish football. The forward scored four goals in seven matches for the club.
