Official! 22-year-old leaves Benfica for Liga's seventh-placed side | OneFootball

Marta Salvador already has a new club for the 2026/27 season. Racing Power has officially announced the signing of the Portuguese defender, who leaves Benfica to continue her career in Liga BPI. At 22, she begins a new chapter.

The full-back made six appearances for Benfica's first team, spread across the 2021/22 and 2023/24 seasons. However, it was with the B team that she stood out the most, enjoying a high-level campaign in 2022/23. In 2024/25, the defender represented Damaiense on loan, making 11 appearances and scoring one goal.

In the following season, a serious injury prevented her from playing any minutes in the red shirt, extending her recovery period throughout the campaign. Now fully recovered, the defender is preparing for a new challenge at Racing Power.

In addition to the defender, Zoe Matthews, Carolina Ferreira, Daniela Areia Santos and Letícia Almeida also saw their contracts with the Reds come to an end. The latter two ended up joining Porto, while Marta Salvador chose to play for Racing Power.

From the defensive line, the team also lost another piece, Joana Silva will play for Valadares Gaia, having already featured for the club in the second half of last season on loan from Benfica, which terminated her contract.
