Sporting set to strengthen in Seixal, 29-year-old close to signing | OneFootball

Sporting continues to shape its plans for the 2026/27 season and already has several names on its shortlist to strengthen the women’s squad. Among them is Madalena Marau, a left-back for Racing Power, the Seixal-based club, who is being monitored by Sporting’s structure as a possible option for next season.

After securing the continuity of Micael Sequeira - which caused discomfort in the dressing room -, the Alvalade club is now focused on building its working group. In that process, the footballer has been identified as one of the players being tracked, according to 'Flashscore'.

The player represented Racing Power last season, after a spell at Braga, where a serious injury ended up halting her progress at an important moment in her career. Even so, she remained on the radar of several clubs due to her experience and competitive ability.

At 29, she has already surpassed the 100-match mark in the Women’s League, cementing a consistent career in Portuguese football. In 2025/26, the player featured in 23 matches for Racing Power, scoring one goal and providing one assist (1,995 minutes).

The green-and-white club continues its assessment with a view to defining the squad for 2026/27. The board is fine-tuning its planning for the next sporting cycle and, for now, Rita Fontemanha’s departure is confirmed, as she has brought her career to an end.
