The 31-year-old joins us following a five-year stint with high-flying Vfl Wolfsburg where she won three consecutive Bundesliga titles and five consecutive DFB Pokal trophies. Prior to Wolfsburg, Babett played for FFC Frankfurt (winning one DFB Pokal trophy) and FFC Turbine Potsdam (winning five Bundesliga titles, one UWCL title, and one DFB Pokal trophy) respectively.

It’s Official: Welcome Ana!

Add another one to the team roster and say hola to 21-year-old Spanish goalkeeper Ana Vallés! She joins us from Rayo Vallecano where she’s played for the past four years. Also, Ana received her first senior cap this past May when Jorge Vilda called her up to for the team’s friendly v Cameroon. Perhaps we have our own Iker in the making?

It’s Official: Welcome Sofia!

Another day, another new player. And today it's none other than 29-year-old Swedish forward Sofia Jakobbson! Woohoo!

It’s Official: Welcome Kaci!

Our third official signing for CD Tacon / Real Madrid is French midfielder/defender Kaci Aurelie! She’s making the big trip across Madrid, having won back-to-back Liga Feminina Iberdrola Championship titles with Atlético Madrid the past two seasons.

Prior to her Atletico days, 29-year-old Kaci spent a combined eight seasons with Olympique Lyon tallying up eight Division 1 Féminine championships, four Coupe de France Féminine trophies, and four UEFA Women’s Champions League medals. Whew – that’s quite a haul. Here’s hoping she can do the same for us!

Real Madrid/Cd Tacon made their first professional signing on July 18 and what a stellar signing it is! Asllani didn’t just have a great World Cup this past summer she had an AMAZING one. Obviously the powers that be were watching and consider her to be the perfect centrepiece around which we can start building a team to challenge Atletico and Barcelona in the Primera División.

Balls and Boots and Bangers and … Golden Tweets?

I’m late bringing you this as I was waiting for a Women’s World Cup all-star team to be announced first. One hasn’t been and likely won’t be. I guess FIFA just wasn’t interested in doing this anymore. Oh well. At least we still have the individual awards to celebrate and debate.

USA – All Hail the Four Time World Champions!

Vive la USA! Congratulations to the USA for winning back to back World Cups and for winning their fourth title overall. Amazing records! Is America great again now?
