Talia DellaPeruta will play for Feyenoord Women 1 in the coming seasons. The 22-year-old youth international from the United States is being transferred from the Italian club UC Sampdoria and has signed a contract with Feyenoord until mid-2026.
'With the arrival of Talia, we have secured the desired additional reinforcement for the midfield,' says Manon Melis, Women's Football Coordinator at Feyenoord. 'We expect Talia to bring a lot of energy to the team and elevate the squad to an even higher level with her leadership qualities.'
Born in Germany but raised in the United States, DellaPeruta is pleased with her move to Feyenoord. 'My first impression of the club is very good. I received a warm welcome, and it immediately feels like a family. I hope to help the team with my experiences and look forward to the start of the season.'
DellaPeruta began her football career at Tophat Soccer Club before making the move to the highly regarded University of North Carolina. After playing for several seasons with the North Carolina Tar Heels, DellaPeruta was under contract with UC Sampdoria last year. DellaPeruta will play with jersey number 27.
