    Valeria Pirone completes Roma Women move!


    Roma Women are delighted to announce the signing of forward Valeria Pirone.

    Roma Women are delighted to announce the signing of forward Valeria Pirone ahead of the new campaign.

    The Italy international has signed a contract with the club that runs until 30 June 2022.

    Pirone, 32, has represented Napoli, RES Roma, Verona, Mozzanica, Chievo and Sassuolo during her career to date - spending the 2020-21 campaign with the Neroverdi as they finished fourth in Serie A.

    "Joining Roma at this stage of my career is a big thing for me," Pirone said.

    "It will give me the chance to play with some fantastic players and challenge myself. It is an honour for me."

    Pirone is a full Italy international, having made her debut for the Azzurre back in 2011. She earned herself a call-up for the squad again earlier this year, joining Milena Bertolini's training group ahead of two friendlies at the end of the 2020-21 campaign.

    "Pirone is a forward with a vast amount of experience, along with great ability and determination," said Betty Bavagnoli, the club's Head of Women's Football.

    "We are convinced we've signed a player who will act as a guide for some of our young players - because her desire to fight for every ball is the perfect example of a winning mentality."

    Welcome to Rome, Valeria!
