Morgan joins directly from Spirit where she has starred in the NPLW NSW this season, currently their second top-scorer with eight goals from midfield.
The 22-year-old has featured in the NSW NPL Team of the Week seven times to date in 2023, more than any other player.
Morgan is also a Young Matildas representative, earning selection in 2018 following her debut season in the Liberty A-League with Canberra United.
She featured 11 times for Perth Glory in the 2020/21 season, and twice for Western Sydney Wanderers in 2021/22.
Touted for talent beyond her years from a young age, Morgan is motivated to return to the A-League with aplomb after a year away from the level.
“It’s been nice in a way to have a year away from the A-League and now I’m refreshed and ready to come back and give it my all,” she said.
“Adelaide United presents a new challenge for me and a great opportunity to keep improving, and hopefully we can achieve something special as a group.
“You hear a lot of good things about Adelaide, and there’s a core group of girls here that I can’t wait to join on the park.”
Head Coach, Adrian Stenta believes Morgan can bring quality and composure to the squad.
“We welcome Sarah to the Club who possesses a range of ability both in defence and attack, and she has proven talent in the A-League system,” he said.
“She has dominated in the New South Wales NPL which is a high standard, and we’re fully confident she can bring this to the next level once again.
“I think the coaching staff are going to have a few selection headaches this season, which is what we want and hopefully all the makings of a successful campaign.”
