Martina Piemonte's Return Puts AS Roma in the Driver's Seat
With the club’s women’s team known as the Giallorosse, AS Roma has officially announced that veteran forward Martina Piemonte will be back to lead their next chapter. This move comes at a critical time after several key departures including Emilie Haavi, Evelyne Viens, and Giulia Dragoni who have all moved on from the Tre Fontane.
The journey of the women’s football team under AS Roma has been nothing short of spectacular since its founding in 2018. Head of Women’s Football Betty Bavagnoli turned an idea into a reality by leading the Giallorosse to three Serie A titles, three Coppa Italia wins, and two Supercoppas, all while competing in the UEFA Champions League for four consecutive seasons.
Despite showing great promise when first signed at AS Roma, Piemonte took some seasoning outside of the capital. After her stint at Lazio where she scored 39 goals over three seasons, including a remarkable 26 last year, she is now ready to take charge as the main goal-scoring option.
Piemonte's return is significant for both her and AS Roma alike. At 27 years of age, Piemonte brings not just experience but also a proven track record of success. As AS Roma navigates through challenging times without its core forwards, having such a player in charge will add stability and strength to the team.
Looking ahead, AS Roma’s women's football club is poised for a new era that combines experience with youth and ambition. Martina Piemonte will undoubtedly play a pivotal role as they work towards maintaining their dominance on the field.
