Granada CF continues to restructure its squad ahead of the 2026/2027 Liga F Moeve season. Following the arrival of Iris Ashley (9 November 2007, Villanueva de la Torre), the Andalusian side has now announced ten signings in this transfer window. Joining the forward from Guadalajara are Maya Evans (Vermont Green FC), Naiara Sanmartín (Real Madrid CF B), Paula Perea (RCD Espanyol), Daniela Miñambres (Atlético de Madrid B), Teresa Mérida (Levante UD), Welma Fon (Saint-Étienne), Yohana Gómez (Deportivo Abanca), Raquel Gil (Deportivo Alavés) and Elene Guridi (Real Sociedad), in addition to the promotion of youth academy player Vera Molina to the first team. The striker arrives on loan from Real Madrid CF, which she joined in 2022 to be part of their youth setup. Last season, the attacker made her debut for the first team.

During that same campaign, she played five matches in the UEFA Women's Champions League, while in Liga F Moeve she clocked up 606 minutes across 16 matches, in which she scored 2 goals—against Athletic Club and Alhama CF ElPozo—and provided 1 assist. She also netted a brace in the Copa de la Reina against RCD Espanyol. In total, despite her youth, the attacker has already accumulated 22 appearances for the senior Real Madrid side, scoring 4 goals. The forward also possesses international experience. She was an U17 World Cup runner-up with the Spanish national team, and a few weeks ago she was crowned U19 European champion with La Roja. “Hello Granadinistas. I am very happy to be part of this club. I am really looking forward to starting and sharing this with you all. Vamos Granada,” remarked the new goalscorer for the Nazarí side.
