Developments: 2. In late July 2026 two high‑profile Italian female players secured moves to clubs outside Italy. On 27 July, 20‑year‑old striker Giulia Bison left Juventus Women for a permanent contract with Swiss Women’s Super League side FC Aarau, after a loan spell at Cesena Femminile and earlier development at Hellas Verona. FC Aarau’s co‑president praised her fit with the team’s attacking style and Bison expressed a desire for regular playing time in Switzerland. Four days later, 19‑year‑old midfielder Giulia Dragoni transferred from FC Barcelona to Chelsea Women on a four‑year deal worth about €500,000, making her the highest‑paid Italian female footballer. Dragoni, a product of Inter’s youth system and former Roma player, highlighted her excitement at joining a club she regards as among the world’s best. Both moves illustrate a growing trend of Italian women’s football talent moving to stronger foreign leagues and securing lucrative contracts. These transfers underscore the increasing international demand for Italian female players and the expanding professional opportunities for them abroad. ## Timeline ### 2026-07-31: Giulia Dragoni joins Chelsea Women on four‑year contract Giulia Dragoni leaves Barcelona for Chelsea Women on a four‑year deal, becoming the highest‑paid Italian female footballer. 4 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/giulia-dragoni-joins-chelsea-women-on-fouryear-contract ### 2026-07-27: Italian forward Giulia Bison signs with Swiss club FC Aarau Giulia Bison, 20, leaves Juventus Women for a permanent move to Swiss side FC Aarau, after a loan at Cesena and youth spells in Italy. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/italian-forward-giulia-bison-signs-with-swiss-club-fc-aarau --- Cite as: Italian women footballers transfers.
