The D1 Arkema will become the first top-five women's league to use VAR beginning in the 26/27 season

Per L'Équipe:

The arrival of the VAR in Arkema Premier League from the 2026-2027 season confirmed by Jean-Michel Aulas

As announced a few days earlier, the VAR will be introduced in Arkema Premier League in the 2026-2027 season. Jean-Michel Aulas confirmed it on the sidelines the LFFP trophy ceremony.

While the VAR is already effective for the play-offs of Arkema Premier League that are competing at the moment, it will be in force during the entire 2026-2027 season, announced Jean-Michel Aulas this Monday, on the sidelines of the LFFP trophy ceremony, as we indicated in March. It will be the first women’s championship in the world to be equipped with it.

The former president of Olympique Lyonnais (1987-2023) had presented this innovation to the members of the executive of the Federation with the argument of gender parity in March, since video assistance to the arbitration is in place in Ligue 1 men since the beginning of the 2018-2019 season. He also explained that the cost of the project (between 1 and 1.5 million euros per year) should be absorbed by increases in marketing revenue, knowing that the FFF provides a subsidy of 13.6 million euros to the Women's Championship this season.

A desire to professionalize the Championship

The projected cost of the VAR in Arkema Premier League is lower than for the men's elite (3.7 million euros per year in Ligue 1), due to a smaller number of matches. He will be the same as for Ligue 1, with four cameras at his disposal. The financial aspect, in a period of lean cows for professional football, has also led the LFP to give up introducing the VAR in Ligue 2 in 2026-2027.

Real Madrid are close to signing Lineth Beerensteyn, per ESPN

Real Madrid continue with their transfer policy for the new course, with the aim of continuing to improve their performance in Europe.

Real Madrid Women are very close to closing the signing of Lineth Beerenstein, according to several sources inform ESPN. Beerenstein, 29, ends contract with Wolfsburg this June and the white box has practically closed his incorporation as a free agent.

The Dutch footballer arrives to reinforce the attack front of Pau Quesada and will replace the loss of Naomi Feller, who will leave Real Madrid to stop at PSG, as ESPN already advanced in recent months.

Beerenstein's signing would be the third of the new season for the white team, after hiring by Andreia Jacinto and Elisa Senss.

Beerenstein has a long history in European football, having played in teams such as Bayern Munich, Juventus in Turin and Wolfsburg. It stands out for being a powerful, fast and skilled player with a ball, in addition to being able to occupy any attacking position.

Real Madrid continue with their transfer policy for the new course, with the aim of continuing to improve their performance in Europe. They link two consecutive seasons falling in the quarterfinals of the Champions League, against Arsenal last season and against Barcelona in this edition.

In addition to the arrival of Beerensteyn, the white team is still working on the signings of Chelsea’s Mayra Ramírez and Niamh Charles. Real Madrid were also interested in Ella Pedemors and Klara Bühl of Wolfsburg and Bayern Munich, but the responses were negative.

At the same time, Real Madrid also made an attempt for Frankfurt Eintracht player Géraldine Reuteler. However, sources of the white club already give this signing to ESPN ruled out because they think it will end in Arsenal.
