Chicago Stars FC NWSL is gearing up for the 2026 National Women’s Soccer League season, which kicks off on March 13. After finishing the 2025 season in 14th place with a record of 3-12-11, the club is looking to make significant improvements. With a new head coach, Martin Sjögren, at the helm, the Stars are set to revamp their strategy and performance on the field. The offseason has seen some key changes, including the departure of prominent players. Forward Ally Schlegel has joined the North Carolina Courage, while Brazilian forward Ludmila has been acquired by the San Diego Wave. These losses will challenge the team to adapt and find new scoring options. However, the Stars have also made important additions to their roster, bringing in Michelle Alozie and Aaliyah Farmer. These new signings are expected to bolster the squad and provide fresh energy as they aim for a better standing in the upcoming season. Fans are eager to see how these changes will impact the team's performance as they strive to climb the league table and secure a more competitive position in 2026.
