My Take
Cristiana Girelli strikes me as exactly the kind of dependable goal-scorer every team craves. Born in 1990 in Gavardo, Italy, she's a commanding 174 cm striker who has made a career living in the box. What impresses me is her willingness, past thirty, to leave Juventus and test herself in America with Bay FC; crossing an ocean for a fresh challenge takes real conviction. Having studied at the University of Verona, she seems to be a thinking forward as much as an instinctive one. As a face of Italian women's football, I hope she keeps the goals coming for years yet.
Overview
Cristiana Girelli (born 23 April 1990) is an Italian professional footballer who plays as a striker for Bay FC of the National Women's Soccer League (NWSL), on loan from Serie A club Juventus, and the Italy national team.
