Real Madrid Femenino has announced the signing of Melanie Leupolz from Chelsea Women. The 30-year-old midfielder is making the move to the Spanish capital after a successful stint with the Women’s Super League champions.
Leupolz, who has been with Chelsea since 2020, has helped the team secure four WSL titles, three Women’s FA Cups, and one League Cup trophy under former manager Emma Hayes. She will now join other notable players like Lucy Bronze and Júlia Bartel at Real Madrid.
Throughout her career, Leupolz has also achieved significant success on the international stage, winning the 2013 European Championship and the 2016 Olympics with Germany before retiring from international duty. Her departure for Liga F now sees her joining Real Madrid as they look to challenge their rivals in Spain’s women’s game.
Real Madrid Femenino is hoping to make their mark in the competitive world of women’s football with Leupolz expected to play a key role in Albert Toril’s squad. With her experience and winning mentality, she will undoubtedly be an important asset as Madrid looks to take on their rivals in Spain.
