Wednesday, September 3, 2025 - Super Falcons and Bay FC striker, Asisat Oshoala, has signed a two-year contract with Al Hilal in the Saudi Women's Premier League.
According to The Athletic, the six-time African Women’s
Footballer of the Year arrived in Saudi Arabia on Monday to undergo her medical
ahead of the deal, which was finalized before the close of the transfer window.
“Bay FC and Al Hilal reached an agreement on an undisclosed
transfer fee, and Oshoala is now in Saudi Arabia ahead of a medical scheduled
for tonight (Monday),” the report stated.
The 29-year-old forward only joined Bay FC earlier this year
after a trophy-laden spell with FC Barcelona Femeni, where she won multiple
league titles, Champions League honors, and Golden Boot awards.
Oshoala earned 23 starts in 25 games for Bay FC’s last
season, scoring seven goals. This year, she’s seen less of the pitch, making
five starts across 12 matches without a goal.
Her
switch marks another major acquisition for Al Hilal, who finished sixth in
the 2024-25 campaign as the competition expanded from eight to 10 teams.
She
joins Super Falcons teammates Ashleigh Plumptre and Francisca
Ordega in Saudi Arabia.
