Malou Marcetto: London City Lionesses sign Denmark midfielder
London City Lionesses have signed Denmark midfielder Malou Marcetto on a two-and-a-half year deal from Madrid CFF.
The 22-year-old has represented her country at youth level, including 10 appearances for the under-23s, and has been a target for the Women’s Super League side for a while.
“The facilities are great and the people I’ve met have made me feel really welcome,” said Marcetto.
“England [is] the biggest football country, in my opinion. Women’s football is growing here and it’s going to be a very competitive league to play in.
“I’m really excited to be here and get started. In terms of my playing style, as a midfielder, I like to be creative and also work hard.”
It is believed London City originally hoped to bring her in when her contract expired in the summer, but have been able to finalise a deal in this window for a small fee.
The club, which is currently sixth in the WSL standings, believes Marcetto brings high potential to the squad and provides added first-team competition.
