If you enjoy big smiles and high energy, follow Yuki Nagasato’s Instagram. The Racing Louisville FC player gives followers a glimpse into her life through her posts.
10/10 recommend her workout and training videos to all socceristas who want new exercises to try. Sprinkle in game day action shots and sweet family videos, and you’ve got a good feel of her page.
Fair warning: cute puppy posts ahead. Doesn’t her Instagram sound perfect? @yuki_nagasato on Instagram.
Brittany Wilson
@brittany1wilsonWhat? It’s only on the opposite side of the country… ##nwsl ##prosoccerplayer ##angelcityfc ##soccer♬ omg she may be insane – Troy
It’s easy to see why Brittany Wilson’s TikTok account has over 200k followers. The now Angel City FC player has mastered mixing current trends with relatable content. The result? Pure laughter.
With posts ranging from “To the athlete who is thinking about giving up” to “Explaining to my husband that I just got traded and now we have to road trip across the entire country,” followers are sure to be entertained.
It’s no wonder that each of her videos has over 10k views. @brittany1wilson on TikTok.

Bethany Balcer’s Twitter feed is a straight mood. The OL Reign player is unapologetically herself and unafraid of voicing her opinion. This is especially true regarding the happenings of the NWSL. Balcer expressed support for players entering the recent Expansion Draft, reminding all of the value in their individual journey.
She has also constantly advocated for fair pay and treatment for women athletes, offering her own experiences as insight into the disparity.
Check out her page for a good mix of hilarity and honesty. @bethanybalcer on Twitter.
Kelli Hubly
My girlies out here killing it ❤️?❤️? @ify_on22 @100Purcent https://t.co/vFQl24WOIp

I’d describe Kelli Hubly as a fangirl, and I don’t mean that in a bad way. Her Twitter feed is proof of that. Most of her posts support her teammates and other fellow NWSL players. I mean, who doesn’t love having a personal cheerleader?
Her posts aren’t all sunshine and butterflies, though. The Portland Thorns player was brave enough to give a raw and open testimony about her personal experience with abuse in the women’s soccer world.
Hubly is definitely using her platform to expose wrongs and promote rights, and I approve. @kellihubly on Twitter.
Bella Bixby
@bella_bixbyBuckle up for August y’all ? ##nwsl ##nwslsoccer ##portlandthorns ##ptfc ##thornsfc @thornsfc♬ original sound – TheNeedleTok
I foresee fellow Portland Thorns FC player Bella Bixby gaining thousands of followers in the near future with her quality TikTok content.
While Bixby only has a few posts, her more recent videos are crafty. It’s evident that she knows humor, and I, for one, am here for it.
Additionally, here’s your warning for cute animal posts! Watch one video of her dog (cleverly named ‘Moose’), and you’ll, without a doubt, be a follower. Really though, who can deny a cute dog?
I’ll be here patiently waiting for more posts, which will hopefully come very soon! @bella_bixby on TikTok.
There are many more fantastic soccer social media stars out there, but that wraps up our five recent favorites.
