No, no... I'm not talking about Cristiano Ronaldo coming to play for the Los Angeles Galaxy; that won't happen! I'm talking about the best female footballer in the world, Marta, who yesterday signed her contract with the WPS team Los Angeles Sol.

Marta Vieira da Silva

The 22-year old Brazilian star was just elected Best Female FIFA Footballer of the Year for the third time in a row. Marta's achievement become even more impressive and we see that besides the three best player titles she's been among the top three since 2004, when she was only 17 years old.

Marta will join Olympic Gold medalists, Shannon Boxx, Aly Wagner and Stephanie Cox. There is still the possibility for the L.A. Sol to bring in other international players such as Japanese midfielder Aya Miyama and Chinese forward Han Duan.

On a personal note, with the best females footballers coming to play in the Women's Professional Soccer League we can certainly be sure that the level of the competition will be as high as the best men's leagues on the planet.

So if you live in Southern California come watch the Los Angeles Sol when the WPS kicks off on March 29th.
