A full American international with seven caps for her country, Huerta joins from NWSL club Houston Dash, making 23 appearances, scoring eight goals and laying on six assists in season 2018.

The Idaho born forward already knows W-League for her time with Adelaide United in 2016/17 when she won the PFA W-League Player of the Month award in January 2017 and finished third in the end of season Julie Dolan Medal voting.

Huerta, 25, said she was excited to be a part of Sydney FC and said she’s glad to be back in the W-League.

“I’ve seen Sydney FC before, I know what the club are about and I’m excited to be in Sky Blue for this season,” she said.

“I want to win titles and I believe this is the best place to make that happen, the W-League is a great league and to be joining one of the biggest clubs in the competition is fantastic.

“I can’t wait to get over to Australia now and get started. I’m looking forward to the season ahead.”

Colaprico signs following a prosperous season with Chicago Red Stars, playing alongside Westfield Matilda Sam Kerr while guiding the club to a top four finish.

Like Huerta, the 25 year old midfielder has previous W-League experience, spending the past two seasons with Adelaide United, and is set to form a solid partnership alongside Teresa Polias in the Sky Blues’ engine room.

Colaprico said she was also eager to kick off with Sydney FC as she prepares for her third W-League season.

“I can’t wait to be back down under and get the ball rolling with Sydney FC,” she said.

“I’m excited by the opportunity to represent such a strong club and I’ve definitely got one eye on silverware this season.”
