According to journalist Anton Toloui, Melvine Malard has attracted interest from two clubs in the National Women’s Soccer League. The French forward is reportedly weighing up her future as her current deal approaches its final year, with her contract due to expire at the end of next season. The reported interest from the United States highlights Malard’s growing reputation following a series of impressive performances at club and international level.
While no agreement has been reached and the identities of the interested clubs have not been disclosed, the situation is one to monitor closely over the coming months. With several NWSL sides continuing to invest heavily in international talent, Malard could become a sought-after option should she decide to pursue a move abroad. Her pace, versatility, and attacking quality make her an attractive target for clubs looking to strengthen their forward line.
Meanwhile, journalist Sandra Riquelme reports that Viola Calligaris is set for a return to Atlético Madrid Femenino once her contract with Juventus Women expires. The Swiss international previously spent time with Atlético and is now expected to rejoin the Spanish side after completing her current deal in Italy.
Calligaris has been a consistent performer throughout her spell with Juventus, bringing experience, defensive solidity, and leadership to the back line. A return to Atlético would reunite her with a familiar environment and provide the Madrid-based club with an experienced international defender ahead of future domestic and European campaigns.
If completed, the move would mark another significant step in Atlético’s squad planning, while Juventus would lose a reliable and versatile defender. As things stand, the transfer is expected to go through once Calligaris’ contract reaches its conclusion, bringing her Italian chapter to an end and opening a new phase back in Spain.
