Bio

Alex Chidiac has been named in her third major tournament squad, earning what the midfielder described as a “shock” call-up from Joe Montemurro. Her call-up to the squad comes off the back of fantastic form with Como in the Serie A Femminile in Italy, where she is regularly starting. Her last call-up for Australia came for Australia's June/July 2025 friendly series against Slovenia and Panama in WA.

The midfielder made her debut for Australia back in 2015 at just 16 years old, then went on to feature in the 2018 edition of the AFC Women's Asian Cup.

Chidiac made her FIFA Women's World Cup debut in the 2023 edition of the tournament, coming off the bench in Australia's narrow defeat to Nigeria to complete a lifelong dream. The midfielder is a two-time Julie Dolan winner, winning the award for the first time in the 2023 season, then more recently in the 2024/25 season.

Her time playing professional football has seen her play over a number of continents, starting her overseas journey in Spain with Atletico Madrid, then to JEF United Chiba in Japan, then spending time in the USA and Mexico before making her move to Italy.
