Official! Defender who netted twice v Benfica joins Fiorentina until 2029 | OneFootball

Carolina Correia has officially been unveiled as a Fiorentina signing. Although she had already joined the Italian club’s pre-season preparations, the signing of the Portuguese defender has now been confirmed. The Portugal international signed a contract until 2029.

At 24, she is preparing for the first experience of her career outside Portugal, after building a solid path in domestic football. After taking her first steps at Casa Pia, Carolina Correia completed her development at Benfica, the club where she progressed through the youth ranks before beginning her senior career.

In the 2020/21 season, she was loaned to Damaiense, later returning to Benfica, whom she represented until 2022/23. Another loan followed, this time to Torreense, where she ultimately established herself for good. Her strong performances led the Torres Vedras club to move to sign the centre-back on a permanent deal.

Over the course of three seasons, Carolina Correia made 84 appearances, scored one goal and provided one assist, a record that attracted Fiorentina’s interest. Now, the Portugal international is preparing to begin a new chapter in Italian football, after signing a four-season deal with the Viola.
