After successfully completing the relevant medical examination, Francisca Ordega signed the contract that binds her to our club and was happy to wear rojiblanco (the red and white).

“For me it is an honor and I am very happy to be here. Atletico Madrid is a great club, internationally recognized, and I really want to start,” she told the club’s website.

Questioned by how she defines herself as a footballer, Francisca Ordega asserts that as a “strong player, physically, athletic and very fast” and although she recognizes that she will need a period of adaptation, she concludes: “I will make the fans feel proud of me.”
