Manila Digger with their new signings |
Hoping to make a dent at Kaya FC's dominance in the women's club football scene in the Philippines, Manila Digger FC announced on Monday at Taguig its acquisition of four new players.
Officially joining the team are Kiara Fontanilla, Rhea Chan, Cynthia Covarrubias, and Poetrie Bedgood.
The first two are familiar to Filipino football aficionados, as both players have been called up for international duty with the Philippines. Their experience and skill will come in handy to aid MD FC, which finished fourth in the league table, afterwards defeating Far Eastern University in penalties before bowing to Kaya FC, 1-0, in the final last November.
Coming from the University are Covarrubias and Bedgood, and both are expected to make an on-field impact on the side with their dynamic playing style.
In making the announcement, Club Manager Oscar shares, "We are excited to have the girls [Kiara, Rhea, Cynthia, and Poetrie] and welcome them to the team. They will bring their experiences and competitive edge to the team."
With these signings, Manila Digger FC is committed to building a team that not only competes at the highest level but also embodies the spirit and passion of women’s football in the Philippines ahead of a thrilling season ahead.
