Will Birgit Prinz sign with Perugia ?
 

Nothing but a cheap publicity stunt. She wouldn't last two seconds on the ball with their reserve team, but it's the signing that brings the attention to Perugia, not her actually playing. If this travesty does happen, it'll be a sad day. And just imagine her losing the ball and trying to play defense! Pathetic.

Not gonna happen, unless Gaucci wants to throw a ridiculous sum of money at her. Hanna Ljungberg and Victoria Svensson already turned him down, what makes him think Prinz will do any different?

In all seriousness... she doesn't have a EU passport. Italian clubs can only sign one new non-EU player per year. Perugia used theirs on Gadhafi.

The 3 qualities Gaucci looks for in a female player for his team are:

This belongs in the "International" forum anyway.

Moved from "WUSA".

she must be able to do it for 90 minutes...
even more some times...

I have a lot of respect on how far womens football has come, and in some cases, plain admire some of their abilities. I'm an admirer of Maren Meinert's creativity up front for example.
However, in all fairness I don't think any woman player at this point will make an impact at the highest level.
Pace is an obvious reason why. If u see a top level mens match and a top level womens match, the pace of the game is just totally different.
Another is technique. The women players nowadays lack the technique to keep up. In The Womens World Cup even the top team (Germany) made a lot of silly amatuer-like mistakes in terms of technique. Also physique. The female players aren't strong enough to survive in a men's top league. Sure maybe some of the women players are bigger than some of the male stars we know, but in terms of strength comparison, the guy usually comes out surprisingly stronger simply because of testosterone.
Prinz shouldn't go to Perugia. She will not make it at that level and should stick to top level womens football where she can continue to score goals and amuse spectators and bring smiles to fans.

i agree. beside, it's Perugia ! - the owner is crazy.

so, Gaucci hired her because she is beautiful and has a great figure, so why don't he hired super model it would be even better.
