Alberto Toril continued as the club's manager after replacing David Aznar during the previous season.[2] The club's most notable signing of the summer transfer window was Caroline Weir who joined from Manchester City on a free transfer.[3]

However, the club's push to join rivals Barcelona as the pre-eminent powers of women's football in Spain did not end there. Kathellen, a winner of the Copa América with Brazil in July, signed in August from Inter Milan while Freja Olofsson became the most-expensive signing in club history when she joined from Racing Louisville for a fee which, according to reports, was in excess of €100,000.[4][5][6] Experienced veteran Sandie Toletti, a member of France's semi-finalist squad at the Euros, was also signed to bolster the team's midfield.[7]

Copa de la Reina

Having suffered elimination at the hands of rivals Barcelona in four consecutive knock-out ties across three competitions, Real Madrid were granted a reprieve when Barça—the three times consecutive winners of the Copa de la Reina—were expelled from the tournament for using an ineligible player.[21]
