The midfielder signed with Angel City FC after returning to the U.S. women's national team for the first time in 20 months last weekend, according to the Meg Linehan and Steph Yang of The Athletic.
USWNT head coach Vlatko Andonovski told reporters at the end of March that Ertz needed to join a professional team in order for the national team to evaluate her for the 2023 World Cup.
