Riola Xhemaili is moving to Serie A

Xhemaili won the league title with Eindhoven last season, scoring 14 goals in 22 league games. “She is a proactive and courageous player who can both score and set up goals,” said Heather O’Reilly, head of women’s soccer at Como, in the press release announcing the Swiss national team player’s transfer.

Transparency Note: This article previously incorrectly stated that Xhemali was transferring to FC Como, which finished the last Serie A season in 8th place. Como 1907, on the other hand—Xhemaili’s new club—played in Italy’s second-highest women’s league last season.
