Juve, Lia Walti says goodbye after just one year: she will play for Brighton and has already had her medical exams


Lia Walti's time at Juventus came to an end sooner than expected, with the player saying goodbye to the club after just one season. The Swiss, who arrived at Velha Senhora last season from Arsenal, where she played for seven years, was unable to establish herself as a starter, accumulating just 16 appearances last season. Now, the 30-year-old midfielder appears ready to return to England, where Brighton awaits her. According to information from The Athletic, negotiations are in the final stages, with Walti having already undergone medical examinations at the new club. The player’s desire to return to play in the Women’s Super League and her search for a new experience in England were decisive for the change. The captain of the Swiss national team therefore says goodbye to Italy after a year, taking her vast experience and skills with her to a Brighton team that demonstrates its ambitions for growth in the future.
