Adelaide United makes history with signing of Jamaican international Tianna Harris 

Adelaide United is delighted to announce the signing of Jamaican international defender Tianna Harris on a one-year deal for the 2026/27 A-League Women season. 

Harris, who holds dual Jamaican and Canadian citizenship, is set to become the first senior Jamaican international to join an A-League Women club, adding another piece of history to the Reds’ squad. 

The 26-year-old arrives in Adelaide with experience across North America and Europe, most recently with SF Damaiense in Portugal’s topflight. 

Tianna Harris said: “Joining Adelaide United is an opportunity I don’t take lightly. This is a club with a rich history, a passionate fanbase, and a women’s program that has ambition to be the best. 

“I’m incredibly grateful to be part of that story and excited to bring my ambition, work ethic, and personality to a team with such a strong identity. I can’t wait to see all the fans at cooper stadium, very excited to be here,” Harris concluded. 

Harris began her professional career with French side FC Fleury 91 in 2023 before moving to Portugal, having previously enjoyed a standout collegiate career with Kent State University and later being named the 2023 USL W League Defender of the Year with Minnesota Aurora. 

She has also established herself within the Jamaican national-team setup, representing the Reggae Girlz in recent internationals and World Cup qualifying. 

Adelaide United Football Director Mitch van Gellekom said Harris would bring valuable experience and quality to the Reds’ defensive group. 

“Tianna has built an impressive career across several strong football environments and brings qualities that we believe will translate extremely well to the A-League Women,” van Gellekom said. 

“She is athletic, competitive and has demonstrated her ability to perform consistently at a high level. 

“To welcome a Jamaican international to the league for the first time is also something we’re really excited about, and we believe Tianna can make a significant contribution this season.” 

Harris joins Adelaide United on a one-year deal for the 2026/27 season and will wear the number 23 shirt for the Reds.
