Barcelona have sent shockwaves through the transfer market by completing the signing of Brazilian forward Kerolin Nicoli from Manchester City. The deal represents a landmark moment for the women’s game, setting a new benchmark for valuations in the English top flight.
Spain forward Salma Paralluelo has officially joined French powerhouses OL Lyonnes on a four-year contract following her departure from Barcelona. The 22-year-old free agent ends a glittering four-year spell in Catalonia, where she won 14 major trophies, to embark on her first career adventure outside of Spain under former manager Jonatan Giraldez.
Barcelona have reached an agreement with Manchester City for the transfer of Kerolin in a deal that would make the Brazil international one of the most expensive players in the history of the women's game. The two clubs have been in negotiations for several weeks and, after Barca had two previous bids rejected, a fee of €1.5m (£1.28m/$1.7m) has now been agreed.
What an explosive women's transfer window it has been so far! Alexia Putellas, Beth Mead, Sam Kerr, Georgia Stanway and Mary Earps are just some of those who have been on the move in the first few weeks, but while a lot of business has already been done, there are still several big names worth keeping an eye on before windows start to slam shut in September.
