Eunice Beckmann joins Madrid

Spanish giants Madrid C. F. Femenino have officially announced the signing of Ghanaian-born German female attacker Eunice Beckmann from Swiss giants FC Basel ahead of the upcoming season.

Beckmann, 26, penned a long-term deal with Madrid following a remarkable season for FC Basel where she scored 25 goals in 26 appearances last term.

She becomes the second signing for Madrid C. F. Femenino after Guatemalan star Analu Martínez and moved to the Matapiñoneras San Sebastián de los Reyes after just one season at Basel where she made a big impression to attract interest from the Spanish Club.

Eunice embarks on a new challenge having played for the likes of German powerhouse Bayern Munich as well as Boston Breakers in the United States.

She is eligible to play for the Black Queens after representing Germany at youth level.

The ex-Linköpings FC striker is yet to be capped by the German Senior Women’s National team.

Ghana have been pushing for the nationality switch of the player ahead of the Africa Women’s Nations Cup which takes place later this year.

Madrid C. F. Femenino is the female side of Spanish giants Real Madrid.
