Ronaldo eager to re-establish Real Valladolid's women's team LaLiga Santander Revealed his plans at the Globe Soccer Awards

Real Valladolid president Ronaldo Nazario has revealed his intention to reassemble the club's women football team in the imminent future.

The announcement came ahead of the Globe Soccer Awards ceremony held in Dubai on Wednesday.

After Ronaldo's takeover last summer, La Pucela - the team with the second lowest budget in the league - sit in LaLiga Santander's twelfth position and are keen to grow.

"There is much to do and we must continue in LaLiga, then invest in young people, the city and the region, and do a great social work," he said.

A new women's team will provide opportunities for girls around the region to enjoy their favourite sport, while being part of a historic football club.

This will be Valladolid's second attempt to establish a female football side, as their previous project lasted for two seasons, between 2009 and 2011.

It was subsequently aborted due to the high financial cost and the change in Spanish FA rules that led to the team's relegation.
