Adelaide United confirm Player of the Year will return after triggering contract clause

Adelaide United have confirmed that their Ninja A-League Player of the Season Erin Healy will remain at the club next season, after a clause was triggered during her standout debut campaign.

Healy was immense during her first season with the Reds, scoring eight goals in 19 appearances and emerging as one of the competition’s most exciting stars.

Her impressive performances were recognised with the 2025 Dianne Alagich Medal as Adelaide United’s Most Valuable Player, along with the club’s Members’ A-League Women Player of the Year award.

Capping off a remarkable debut year in Australia, Healy was recently called up to the Republic of Ireland Women’s National Team for the first time, joining Ireland’s UEFA Women’s Nations League squad for crucial matches against Türkiye and Slovenia.

“I’m so happy to be in Adelaide for another season,” Healy said, “It’s been a really special year for me — both on and off the field — and I’ve loved representing this Club.

“We have a great group here, and I can’t wait to get back to work and help push the team even further next season.”

Head of Football, Marius Zanin, added: “Erin’s commitment to the upcoming season is a fantastic reflection of what we’re creating at this Club.

“She’s a top-quality player and an even better person, and we’re excited to see what she can achieve in her second year with the Reds.”

Healy’s re-signing is a coup for Adelaide on the back of the club’s best ever Ninja A-League season.
