Brisbane no longer 'the right place' for Tan

On May 28, she announced on Instagram that she will be leaving Brisbane Roar, after making just three appearances in the 2024-25 A-League Women season.

In a statement on social media, the club said the 20-year-old forward is among five players who will leave the club upon the expiration of their contracts at the end of this season.

Brisbane, who finished seventh out of 12 teams in the recently concluded A-League Women campaign, thanked the players for their contributions and wished them all the best in the future.

Tan told The Straits Times she is keeping her options open, saying: "My main consideration is finding an environment where I believe I can improve and grow most as a player, whether in Europe or somewhere else in the world.

I'm always trying to improve myself as a player, and that means constantly looking for environments where I can grow the most and take my football to the next level.
