Chelsea and England defender Bright announces retirement
Chelsea captain Millie Bright to retire from football after this season.
Juventus Women striker Chiara Beccari has suffered a torn ACL in her left knee, sidelining her for the remainder of the season. The injury occurred during a match against Roma, further complicating Juventus's challenging 2025-26 season.
Chiara Beccari suffered a torn ACL in her left knee less than 20 minutes into the match against Roma.
Beccari is expected to be sidelined for approximately 12 months following her ACL surgery.
Beccari's injury adds to Juventus Women's struggles this season, as they sit in third place and face challenges in securing a spot in the Women's Champions League qualifying rounds.
Beccari is unlikely to return to play until the 2027 calendar year, affecting her availability for both Juventus and the Italian national team.

Following an injury to her left knee sustained during the Juventus Womenâs First Teamâs recent Serie A Women match against Roma, Chiara Beccari underwent diagnostic tests at J|Medical. Those tests revealed a tear in her anterior cruciate ligament.
Chiara will undergo surgery in the coming days to reconstruct her ACL. Beccari, in her second season back at Juventus after highly impressive 2023-24 season on loan at Sassuolo, was tied with Girelli for the team lead in goals with four at the time of her injury. The fact that Juventus Women are 19 games into the Serie A Women season and their leading goal scorers top the list with all of four goals shows one of the major problems this team has had this season. But itâs also a fact that losing a player as talented as Beccari is something that this club canât afford to see happen for such an extended period of time. Based on how long it will likely take for her to recover from the ACL surgery, it probably wonât be until the 2027 calendar year that we see Beccari play another game for Juventus Women. Or for the Italian womenâs national team for that matter as they work through the second half of qualifying for the 2027 Womenâs World Cup. Beccari penned this post on Instagram after news broke of her ACL injury. It reads as follows: There are things you never want to happen. News you never want to receive.
They say life can be cruel sometimes, just like this sport. And today is one of those days, with so much anger, pain and a thousand things running through your head.
But if thereâs one thing Iâve learned is that no challenge that comes before you does it by chance, And I am ready to face it and welcome all the teachings it will bring me.
Now itâs time for just a little break. Iâll miss you so much, but when we meet again itâll be even more beautiful and intense, I promise.
