Megan Rapinoe to play in France

Saw this pop up on her official Facebook page today:

"Headed out to France today!!! And not for holiday either. I am pleased to say Lyon will be my home for the next six months!!! I am thrilled at the challenge of being apart of one of the best football clubs in the world. More updates to come!! France here I come!"

Interesting... when does the new women's professional league start? Will it be as late as June/July? If not, I wonder how this might impact her potentially playing in Portland.

From an interview with Merritt on the night of the USA-Ireland match

“It’s April. Originally, it was going to be May. It’s now April. There are pretty, I think, big windows in the international calendar.”
