NJ/NY Gotham FC News Release
HARRISON, N.J. - NJ/NY Gotham FC has signed forward Jenna Bike and Amanda Visco to National Team Replacement Player contracts ahead of the upcoming international window in June. Gotham FC currently has four players (Estelle Johnson - Cameroon, Ifeoma Onumonu - Nigeria, Kristie Mewis/Midge Purce - U.S.) representing their countries during the July World Cup qualifiers.
Bike was invited to preseason camp and is a product of Boston College, where she was a two-time captain. Bike was a force for the Eagles, registering 18 goals and 15 assists in 89 games played from 2016-21. The Trumbull, Connecticut, native also led Boston College in shot attemps in her final two seasons with the program.
Visco is a local product out of Rutgers, who has previous professional experience overseas with Santa Teresa de Badajoz (Spain), Apollon Ladies FC (Cyprus) and Valadares Gaia FC (Portugal). With the Scarlet Knights, Visco was a 2019 All-Big Ten and All-Region Selection. She saw action in 83 games during her collegiate career where she also chipped in six goals from the back line. As a sophomore, Visco anchored Rutgers' defense to a program-record 924:07 shutout streak.
Gotham FC is back in action Saturday, July 2 when the Chicago Red Stars visit Red Bull Arena. Kickoff is slated for 7 p.m. ET. Fans can also catch all the action live on Paramount+ in the U.S. and Twitch internationally.
