Sofia Hurley signs with Sydney Swans until 2028
The midfielder, 20, has committed to Sydney until end of 2028 after winning the club's top award last year.
Sofia Hurley has locked in a contract with Sydney until at least the end of 2028 after extended negotiations with the club. The midfielder won the Swans' Best and Fairest award in 2024 at just 20 years old and has been crucial to the team's growth this season.
Hurley was drafted pick No. 5 in 2022 and has played 43 games across five seasons. An ankle injury in the Sydney derby in round five will sideline her for the rest of the season, but the club is hopeful she will return during the finals series.
Sydney, currently two games clear in the top eight, is also working to retain rising star Zippy Fish, who has interest from Geelong and Fremantle.
