“I am very happy to have signed a new deal to continue playing for Canberra United in the 2024-25 season,” Bertolissio said.
“I thoroughly enjoyed my time at United last season and am looking forward to continuing to improve my game at the club.
“Playing in front of the United fans was a superb experience, and I can’t wait to get back out in front of them again.”
Bertolissio joins 2023-24 Golden Boot winner and CommBank Matildas star Michelle Heyman, Ruby Nathan, Hayley Taylor-Young, Sofia Christopherson, Holly Murray and Mary Stanic-Floody in re-signing for Canberra.
Canberra have also recruited Sally James, Elizabeth Anton, Aideen Keane and Jynaya Dos Santos.
“We are pleased that Tegan has signed a new deal to be part of Canberra United for the new season,” said head coach Antoni Jagarinec.
“Her performances last season showed that she has plenty of potential and we are looking forward to seeing her achieve that potential in our colours.
“Tegan only missed a handful of matches last year, being a dependable presence in the squad and becoming a popular figure amongst our supporters. We are sure that she will continue her career trajectory in 2024-25.”
