Ohale's CD Tacon to be renamed Real Madrid on July 1

Osinachi Ohale's Spanish Primera Iberdrola outfit CD Tacon will be officially taken over and renamed Real Madrid on July 1.

Real Madrid president Florentino Perez agreed to launch their own women’s team and moved to acquire CD Tacon, a Madrid-based team promoted to the Spanish top-flight in 2019.

Los Blancos had approved a deal worth around €500,000 for Tacon’s licence to be transferred to Real last summer, according to Spanish news outlet El Mundo.

Since the process started last June, Tacon signed various players including Nigeria's Ohale, and train and play at Real’s complex in Valdebebas.
