Jordyn Nicole Listro (born August 10, 1995) is a Canadian professional soccer player who plays as a midfielder for Orlando Pride of the National Women's Soccer League (NWSL).

Early life

Born in Toronto, Canada, Listro was a standout soccer player at Bayview Glen School and was awarded team MVP 2009–11. She played club soccer for Wexford SC and the Ontario Soccer National Training Centre as a youth, later playing for Toronto Lady Lynx in the USL W-League and Sanjaxx Lions in League1 Ontario.[1]

South Florida Bulls

Listro played college soccer at the University of South Florida while majoring in health sciences. She was a four-year starter for the South Florida Bulls between 2013 and 2016, becoming the program's record appearance maker with 82.[1][2] As a senior she was named to the AAC All-Conference Second Team.[3]

Professional career

UDG Tenerife

Listro entered the 2017 NWSL College Draft but was not selected.[4] In June 2017, she signed with Spanish Primera División team UDG Tenerife.[2][5] Listro made her professional debut starting in a 1–1 with Rayo Vallecano on September 3, 2017. She made a total of five appearances for the team before departing in November 2017, returning to Canada for personal reasons.[6][7]

Orlando Pride

After a spell working as a medical sales representative, Listro attempted to make a return to professional soccer and was a trialist with Orlando Pride during 2020 preseason.[8] With the season disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic, Listro was one of seven players signed to a short-term contract with Orlando in order to compete in the Fall Series in September following the team's decision to loan out 11 senior players to play regularly overseas.[9][10][11] She made her debut on September 19, 2020 in the first fall series match, starting in a 0–0 draw with North Carolina Courage.[12] She started in three of the four Fall Series matches for a combined 262 minutes.[13] Ahead of the 2021 season, Listro re-signed with the club on a one-year deal with an option for an additional season.[14]

International

As well as Canada, Listro is also eligible to represent Italy at international level, the birthplace of her grandparents.[15]

In 2012, Listro was named to the Canada under-17 squad for the 2012 FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup held in Azerbaijan.

After Canada Soccer dropped contact with her when she went to college,[16] Listro received her first senior national team call-up in January 2021 for a training camp ahead of the 2021 SheBelieves Cup.[17] She was one of six uncapped players named to incoming head coach Bev Priestman's first squad.[18]
