Stengel originally joined Gotham FC on loan from Liverpool FC in July 2023, and later joined the club on a permanent transfer following her strong offensive production.

Stengel has earned seven starts in 14 appearances, recording 738 minutes with Gotham FC this regular season. In the NWSL x LigaMX Summer Cup, she recorded two goals and two assists in four games. In the club’s first-ever match of the Concacaf W Champions Cup, Stengel found the back of the net and earned Player of the Match.
During the club’s 2023 NWSL Championship run, the forward played a critical role in the semifinal against the Portland Thorns, in which she scored the game-winning goal in extra time to send the club to the Championship.
