An agreement has been reached between FC Barcelona and Bay FC from the National Women’s Soccer League in the United States of America for the transfer of Nigerian striker Asisat Oshoala, whose contract was set to end on 30 June 2024.

2022/23 was her final full season, when she scored 27 goals in 40 games, and she has scored 8 goals in 14 games so far this current 2023/24 season.

14 trophies

Oshoala's legacy in Barça is rounded off with no less than 14 trophy wins, with the African striker winning 2 Champions Leagues, 4 Liga F, 3 Copa de la Reinas, 4 Spanish Super Cups and 1 Catalan Cup as a blaugrana.
