The Southern Mississippi women’s soccer team is about to gain a few more followers after a new addition that has fans buzzing on social media.

Kiana Dufour has received a scholarship to the school after reportedly playing at a semi-professional level in Canada.

Her move was announced by the school in November, but now it’s going viral after fans discovered her stunning Instagram account, where she apparently has some high-profile admirers.

USMNT and Juventus star Weston McKennie has liked some of her posts in the past, as have New York Yankees pitcher Marcus Stroman and Lionel Messi’s Inter Miami teammate David Ruiz.

She has also caught the attention of former Kansas City Chiefs player Louis Rees-Zammit, who is now on the Jacksonville Jaguars roster.

And they aren’t the only admirers Dufour has. When news of her transfer to Southern Miss made the rounds online, she immediately gained many new fans.

“Wow, this is huge for Southern Miss,” one online follower wrote. “Kiana Dufour will bring a lot of attention to the team!”

Another said: “In the future I like any team Kiana Dufour plays for.”

“Southern Miss just went from soccer to samba overnight, Kiana Dufour is a game changer,” another fan wrote.

And one of her bigger social media fans wrote, “This girl is like the hottest girl in the world. ‘Holy hell.’

Dufour herself pinned pictures on her Instagram of herself posing in a Southern Miss jersey with the caption: “Blessed and committed. Southern Miss to the top.”

Dufour plays as a forward and also represented Haiti at youth level during his time in Quebec, Canada.

According to Quebec news site Courrier Laval, Dufour had two surgeries as a teenager to reattach her pelvic bones due to hip dysplasia.

She needed physical therapy to be able to walk, run and jump again.

But Dufour’s new fans will have to wait to see her play. The 2025 football season begins in August.
