Priscila was the top scorer of the 2023 Copa Libertadores Femenina, scoring eight goals in just six matches.[5]

On 12 September 2024, Internacional announced that it had reached an agreement with Liga MX Femenil side Club América to transfer Priscila to América for a $497,403 usd fee plus performance-based bonuses, making this the largest transfer fee received by a Brazilian women’s football club, the most expensive acquisition by a Liga MX Femenil club, and one of the most expensive transfers in women’s football. Inter also stated that they would receive a 20 percent fee of any future transfer of Priscila from América to another club.[6][7]
