Soccer star Hope Solo says she might consider running for office after her athletic career concludes, adding that she's a fan of Hillary Clinton.

Solo, the U.S. women's soccer goalie, took part in a chat on Sidewire.com where she happily talked politics with Tracy Sefl, a PR professional who formerly advised the Ready for Hillary PAC.

When Sefl asked if Solo had a political future, the goaltender wrote back, 'why not!?!?!' complete with a smiley-face emoji.

'I guess I'm controversial enough to run for office!' she said.

Soccer goalkeeper Hope Solo attended the annual White House Correspondents' Association Dinner in late April and said a 'lowlight' was not seeing Donald Trump and President Obama in the same room

As for Clinton, who earned enough delegates last week to become her party's presumptive nominee, Solo doled out high praise.

'Hillary is the best candidate, the best leader, the best diplomat,' Solo gushed.

'I support the best person for every job, every time,' she continued.

'Man or woman, black or white, gay or straight,' the soccer star added.

Clinton has been pushing pay equity, an issue that Solo's holds near and dear.

'I can only hope and pray that our struggles with USSoccer federation helps to advance the conversation on broader pay equity issues!!!' she wrote. 'Including the Paycheck Fairness Act!!!'

Clinton often brings up the Paycheck Fairness Act at campaign rallies.

Solo and a handful of other top female soccer players filed a lawsuit in March of this year, suing U.S. Soccer, the body that pays American players of both genders, for wage discrimination.

The female soccer players – who again brought home the World Cup last year – were being paid as little as 40 percent of what their male counterparts were making, a team known for its mediocrity.

'The pay gap between our two teams, the USMNTand the USWNT is emblematic of what is happening all across our country!!! Solo continued.

'But I will say, we are gaining many [allies] in our fight for equal pay!!' she wrote.

Sefl asked what people can do to support Solo's cause.

'People can discuss the facts! Not their feelings on the topic,' the athlete answered. 'Many people I have tried to speak with are unable to throw aside their ignorance regarding female professional sport.'

'Let's encourage people to have an open and logical discussion about it,' Solo added.

Solo graced Washington with her presence in late April when she attended the White House Correspondents' Dinner as a guest of the Atlantic.

When asked to name a highlight and a lowlight of the evening, Solo paid a compliment to her host, saying it was great to meet Sefl.

As for a lowlight?
