Club career

Aedo left Colo-Colo for American National Women's Soccer League team Washington Spirit in January 2015.[3] She helped the club's reserve team win the 2015 USL W-League season championship, scoring twice in the 2–1 final win over Colorado Pride.[4]

In September 2016, Aedo transferred to Spain's Primera División club Valencia CF Femenino.[5] On 27 June 2017, the Washington Spirit announced that they had re-signed Aedo.[6] She was placed on waivers by the Spirit on 21 June 2018.[7]

On 13 July 2018 it was announced that Aedo was returning to Valencia CF Femenino, the club she had played with from 2016 to 2017.[8] She left the Spanish club at the end of the season.[9] After stints with Sevilla and Rayo Vallecano, Aedo returned to Chile to rejoin Colo-Colo, with Chilean outlets confirming the news on 6 September 2022.[10]

International career

In early September 2010, seventeen-year-old Aedo represented Chile at the FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup. Later that month, she was named in Chile's 20-player senior squad for the 2010 South American Women's Football Championship in Ecuador.[11] She scored the opening goal in Chile's 3–1 win over Peru. Aedo scored three goals at the 2018 Copa América Femenina,[12] where Chile qualified to a FIFA Women's World Cup for the first time in its history.
