Since Liga MX Femenil was established in 2017, the league has attracted a growing number of high profile players from abroad. Here are five international stars in Liga MX Femenil who have made an impact on Mexican women's football.
Interestingly, Liga MX Femenil increased its limit for foreign players from two per club in 2021 to five in 2024, and then to seven starting in 2025. The change reflects growing international interest in playing in Mexico.
One of the biggest names in Spanish football, Jenni Hermoso made history by signing with Pachuca in 2022 in an unprecedented, high profile move.
Hermoso became a World Cup champion with Spain in 2023 while playing for Pachuca. She later moved to Tigres before continuing her career in Mexico and abroad.

Serie A side Roma picked up a dramatic 2-1 win over Atalanta on Saturday but after the tie, something chaotic ensued between the two clubs off the pitch.
La Dea had led the game for a vast majority of the second half but Roma kept pushing. They got late goals from Matias Soule and Mario Hermoso, turning the tie around in a matter of minutes.
Corriere dello Sport – via CM, report that things took an ugly turn between Giallorossi sporting director Tony D'Amico and Atalanta's CEO Luca Percassi, who worked together for the Bergamo club until last season.
Several witnesses and even Roma themselves, confirm that Percassi insulted D'Amico after the tie. The Giallorossi key figure was chased down by his compatriot in the parking lot of the Stadio Olimpico and the matter had to be calmed down by intervention of security.
Apart from the game, the two don't have a pleasant relationship anymore. Percassi wasn't happy with D'Amico's decision to push for a Roma move, even though he had already appointed Cristiano Guintoli.

Gian Piero Gasperini feels the late victory over Atalanta means Roma 'really believe' and have more options off the bench. 'The quality has increased.'
It was turning into an extremely frustrating evening for the Giallorossi, who dominated the match at the Stadio Olimpico without making any of it count, trailing to an Ederson strike against the run of play.
After several Marco Carnesecchi saves, and Santiago Castro hitting the woodwork twice, they finally made their mark in added time.
First the looping Mario Hermoso header went in off the inside of the far post from a corner, then Matias Soulé drilled into the near bottom corner for a 2-1 victory.

The wait is over; in two days, Roma will take to the field at the Olimpico. The Giallorossi's first opponent of the season will be Fiorentina, who have undergone a revamped squad.
On the eve of the match against the Lilies, Gian Piero Gasperini held his first press conference of the season. In addition to the match presentation, the coach also addressed the transfer market.
The coach began by listing the players: "Numerically, something is missing. We don't have the capacity to have 23 players on the squad, especially for the Champions League. We have two free slots. Four players have arrived; Molina is an important player coming off the World Cup final and has come in to replace Celik. Dovbyk left and was replaced by Castro. Koulierakis is an addition; we needed a backup for Hermoso. Finally, Rodrigo Mora arrived, but El Shaarawy, Venturino, and others have left."
"Players with a great desire to join Roma have arrived; Castro took the train just to come. Salaries have been lowered to meet our needs. We have 10 days left, and we hope to complete everything."
Roma, like Fiorentina, have chosen to focus on young players. The coach expressed his thoughts on this matter: "Often, focusing on young players is a necessary path, but it can have its advantages. As for Mora, he has a lot of experience despite his young age. He was an investment by the owners with a view to the future, but I can't give him too much responsibility, being a 2007 player; he needs to follow certain steps. He has all the characteristics to emerge."

Spain footballer Jenni Hermoso, the victim in the 2023 kissing scandal involving former top official Luis Rubiales, looks set to return to her homeland after leaving Mexican club Tigres.
The 36-year-old said a tearful farewell to Tigres in a video published by the club late on Saturday. Spanish media are reporting that Hermoso could join her former club Atlético Madrid.
She spent four years in Mexico at two clubs, meaning she has not played in the Spanish league since the scandal which rocked the end of the 2023 Women's World Cup.
Former Spanish football federation chief Rubiales kissed Hermoso on the mouth during the trophy presentation after Spain's women won the trophy in Sydney. The player said this happened without her consent.
Rubiales initially defended his actions but later resigned from his post. FIFA banned him for three years and a court convicted him of ***** ual ***** ault, handing him a fine.

Santiago Castro immediately made himself available to Gian Piero Gasperini.
Ready, steady, go, and upon arriving at the Giallorossi, the Argentine started immediately, first against Cardiff and then against Newport.
Roma flopped in their first friendly in Wales, losing 4-1, but they won convincingly in the second match.
Against the League Two club, the Grugliasco-born coach's team won by the same scoreline they had in their first match, 1-4. The new number 9 stood out, providing an ****** ist for Mario Hermoso and a goal from the penalty spot.
However, a brawl also broke out during the match.

Konstantinos Koulierakis is Roma's chosen addition to strengthen their defense.
The former Wolfsburg center-back has arrived at the Giallorossi for a total fee of around €18 million.
The Greek defender joins a squad that includes Mancini, Ndicka, Hermoso, Ghilardi, and Ziolkowski.
Interviewed exclusively by TeleRadioStereo, the new Giallorossi signing introduced himself as follows: "I'm very happy, I thank everyone who welcomed me here. I'm perfectly at ease with the staff and my new teammates."
"I didn't think twice when I heard of Roma's interest; they're a great club and have extraordinary fans. I spoke to Manolas before coming here; he told me it would be an important step in my career, and now I'm here."

After locking down a deal for Santiago Castro, it was expected that all of Tony D'Amico's efforts would turn back to finding a left wing that Gian Piero Gasperini has been yearning for. However, it appears that the next Giallorossi signing for the time being won't be Antonio Nusa or Abde Ezzalzouli to fill that need. Instead, reports indicate that Roma's next signing won't even play that far up the pitch.
In a move that came out of nowhere, Roma is expected to sign 22-year-old Greek defender Konstantinos Koulierakis of Wolfsburg. The deal was first reported by Ugo Trani of Te la do io Tokyo and is now being corroborated by Fabrizio Romano and others. The amount being bandied about is €15 million, and it's expected that Koulierakis would fill the role of vice-Hermoso.
Koulierakis is a left-footed center back who brings considerable experience for his age. He's made 59 Bundesliga appearances over the last two seasons, 35 appearances in the Greek Super League, and another 9 Europa Conference League appearances with PAOK prior to that. He's also already made 22 appearances for the Greek national team.
Koulierakis was purchased by Wolfsburg from PAOK for just under €12 million two summers ago. After proving his worth in Germany, Roma is ready to bring him to Italy to add depth to its rearguard. Perhaps most importantly, he is a left-footed defender in a back three dominated by right-footed players—aside from Hermoso, to whom Koulierakis will likely be an understudy.
Koulierakis is a fairly tall center back at 6'2" and defends well in the air. He's known for being a progressive passer, which makes him a good fit in Gasperini's system as a left-sided defender. He's also proven to be composed on the ball and comfortable defending in tight ******* es. Koulierakis has chipped in 4 goals and 3 ******* ists during his time at Wolfsburg. At just 22, he's got plenty of room for development under Gasperini's tutelage.

For long stretches of the season, Roma had the best defense in Europe’s top five leagues.
From Svilar to the trio of Mancini, Ndicka, and Hermoso, the contribution should be extended to the entire team, which worked well without possession.
For Gian Piero Gasperini, the defensive block was crucial to reaching the Champions League.
It’s important to remember that Roma’s central defenders are also the team’s top scorers in Serie A (10). A valuable dual role that the Grugliasco-born coach doesn’t want to give up.
Gasperini has sent a clear signal to the club in discussions about building the team of the future: he wants to keep the defensive block from the recently concluded season intact and aim even higher. Here’s what Il Tempo reports.
