West Ham United have secured France international Estelle Cascarino on a permanent basis after a six‑month loan spell. The defender has signed a 3‑year contract with the London club, joining from Serie A side Juventus.

Cascarino, 29‑year‑old, made 12 appearances for West Ham in all competitions during her loan, earning a recall to the France squad in February. She helped lift the club from the bottom of the table to 10th place and expressed delight at returning home.

Her spell at Juventus saw her make 49 appearances over three years, collecting a league title, Coppa Italia trophy, and Supercoppa Italiana in the 2023‑24 season. She has also featured for Manchester United, Lyon, Paris FC, Bordeaux and Paris Saint‑Germain.

West Ham manager Rita Guarino praised Cascarino’s quality, noting her arrival was crucial for the club’s survival in the WSL. She said her experience will be vital as West Ham looks to progress this season.
