FC Porto’s women’s team has another new signing: Soraya França arrives on loan from São Paulo and will join the national Second Division champions’ squad until the end of the 2026/27 season.
Born in Recife, the 29-year-old forward took her first steps in senior football with América FC. Spells at eight more Brazilian clubs followed: Clube Náutico Capibaribe, União Desportiva Alagoana, SC Recife, Chapecoense, Avaí/Kindermann, Associação Atlética Napoli, Atlético Mineiro and São Paulo, before the move to Porto.
In her honours list, Soraya França has one Campeonato Alagoano, won in 2016, two Campeonato Pernambucano titles, in 2017 and 2018, a Taça Cidade do Paulista, in 2018, and a Campeonato Catarinense, won in 2019 alongside Mylena Freitas. She then moved to Associação Atlética Napoli, in the women’s Second Division, helping the club secure promotion to the Brasileirão.
Midway through the following season, she joined Atlético Mineiro, where she remained for four seasons and won two Campeonato Mineiro titles, in 2021 and 2022. In the current campaign, she represented São Paulo, playing in the Brasileirão, the Campeonato Paulista and the Copa do Brasil, before being loaned to FC Porto.
At 29, the forward crosses the Atlantic to strengthen Daniel Chaves’ attack and is preparing for her first international experience. Soraya França will wear the blue and white number 15 shirt.
