Transfer: Oshoala to Join Al-Hilal From Bay FC

Asisat Oshoala, a six-time African Women’s Footballer of the Year, joins Al Hilal after 38 appearances and eight goals for Bay FC, seeking more playing time in Saudi Arabia.

  • According to The Athletic, Al Hilal completed the agreement for Nigerian international striker Asisat Oshoala before the Saudi transfer window closed, and she is in Saudi Arabia ahead of a medical.
  • With playing time reduced, Bay FC head coach Albertin Montoya cited Asisat Oshoala's poor defensive contributions, limiting her to five starts this year across 12 matches.
  • With 107 Barcelona goals and multiple titles, Oshoala won five Liga F titles, two UEFA Women’s Champions League crowns, and is a six-time African Women's Footballer of the Year plus four-time WAFCON champion including this year.
  • The signing positions Al Hilal as a growing force, adding Oshoala to Nigerian stars in the Saudi Women’s Premier League and highlighting its expansion from eight to 10 teams.
  • After completing medicals in Riyadh on Monday, Asisat Oshoala signed a two-year contract with Al Hilal, having been excused from Bay FC after last playing in Saturday's 3-2 defeat to Washington Spirit.
