"It is a dream come true," Kovacevic told CBC Sports. "A big shout out to Diana Matheson and Christine Sinclair and the NSL for finally bringing this to Canada. There's so much talent within this nation. It's amazing we finally get to give these players a platform to showcase their abilities and the best part is they don't have to live out of a suitcase overseas, they get to play in front of their friends and family. That's a dream come true for any athlete."
"We're thrilled to have Jade as our first signing," said Marko Milanovic, head coach of AFC Toronto. "She's always trained like a professional, even without a domestic league to play in, and it's that commitment, her goal-scoring ability and leadership that will help us establish our presence in the league."
