Paula Partido Recalled from Loan

London City Lionesses can confirm that Paula Partido has been recalled from her loan spell with DUX Logroño, returning to the CopperJax Community Stadium this January.

The 20-year-old winger spent the first half of the 2024/25 season in Spain, making 17 appearances across Liga F and the Copa de la Reina. During her time with Logroño, Partido registered one goal and one assist, gaining valuable senior minutes in a highly competitive domestic environment.

Since arriving at London City Lionesses from Real Madrid in the summer, Partido has continued her development through consistent match exposure, building on her experience across elite European competitions and international youth football.

Her recall now brings another exciting option into the squad as the season enters a crucial phase, with Partido returning having added top-flight experience to her game.

Speaking on her return to London City Lionesses, Partido expressed her excitement about getting started back in England.

“I’m really happy to be here, I can’t wait to get started and I want to play every minute the Head Coach gives me.

“The loan was important for me; it definitely gave me confidence in myself as a player.”

Partido also reflected on her development, the support around her at the club, and the qualities she hopes to bring to the pitch.

“The Spanish players at the club, and Head Coach Eder can help me learn in football, but also the language too.

“I’m a player who likes to run, I’m fast, I like taking people on one-vs-one, they are my best abilities.

“I’m so happy to be here and I can’t wait to meet the fans in the stadium.”

Everyone at London City Lionesses looks forward to welcoming Paula back and seeing her continue her development in London City Lionesses colours.
