After 118 years, Real Madrid will launch a professional women's team on Wednesday by absorbing CD Tacon and launching a fresh Galactico project at the club.

Madrid, the best team of the 20th century according to FIFA, has so far been one of the only elite clubs to resist the creation of a female team.

According to the Spanish press, Madrid have set their sights on the game's finest talents and some of the first signings could arrive this week.They signed Swedish internationals Kosovare Asllani and Sofia Jakobsson, who was nominated for the 2019 Women's Ballon d'Or and who joined last year after finishing third in the Women's World Cup.

"The time has come to build a team that you will all be very proud of," said Real Madrid president Florentino Perez.

How decisions are made about who to send to a mental health emergency Police don’t need to respond anymore to anything Let people deal ON THIER OWN with the problems like anyone in an opp or rcmp Region 2 hour minimum or not at all Toronto will learn quickly And when the person in mental health crisis gets violent or has a weapon who do you call, because paramedics are not equipped or trained to deal with that, and nor should they be!!!
