Melbourne Victory re-signs Victorian duo

Melbourne Victory is pleased to announce the re-signing of Maja Markovski and Emma Robers ahead of the 2021/22 A-League Women’s season.

Markovski returns for her second campaign with the Club after making five appearances during the 2020/21 Championship-winning season.

The 19-year-old forward will be joined by Robers who returns to the Club after her first stint at Victory in 2019/20.

After an ACL injury derailed her 2020/21 campaign, Robers returns to the Club where she took part in the AFC Women’s Club Championship in 2019.

With the A-League Women’s season fast approaching, Head Coach Jeff Hopkins said the re-signings will help continue his side’s push towards defending their title.

“We’re confident our squad has what it takes to go back-to-back this season as we lay the foundations to create something special,” Hopkins said.

“Maja will continue to add another element to our final third as she masters her craft as a young forward in the A-League.

“Emma has been an incredible professional during her ACL recovery and we’ve rewarded her with a contract this season. We’re hoping she can get back to the form that saw her impress in the WNPL in 2019.”

Melbourne Victory begin their 2021/22 A-League Women’s campaign on Sunday 5 December against Adelaide United at AAMI Park, kick-off 4.05pm.
