Real Madrid Femenino Signs Portuguese Midfielder Andreia Jacinto

The 24-year-old arrives from Real Sociedad, where she established herself as a key player over four seasons, amassing 125 official appearances, three goals, and 16 assists.

Jacinto becomes the second addition to Pau Quesada's squad as the club continues to build a competitive project. The move is aimed at adding depth and balance to the midfield, a position identified as needing reinforcement for the challenges ahead in both domestic and European competitions.

Before her time in Spain, Jacinto developed through the youth system at Sporting CP, joining the Lisbon club's academy in 2016 and signing her first professional contract in September 2019 at age 17. Her progression at Sporting CP laid the foundation for her rise as one of Portugal's most accomplished midfielders.

Jacinto is a regular for the Portuguese national team, having participated in major international tournaments and contributing to the growth of women's football in Portugal. Her consistency and maturity have made her one of the standout players of her generation.

The contract with Real Madrid runs until 2030, underscoring the club's long-term commitment to the midfielder. Jacinto will aim to become a significant part of a project seeking to take a step forward in Spain and Europe.
