Bay FC coach Albertin Montoya said previously that he was working on acquiring a world-class No. 9. On Thursday, she arrived.
Nigerian forward Asisat Oshoala was announced on Thursday as the 2023 National Women’s Soccer League’s latest signing following the completion of a transfer from FC Barcelona. She is signed through the 2026 season with an option for 2027.
“I spoke with [Montoya] earlier and I like the style of play, the style of football he wants to play,” Oshoala told The Equalizer. “I like the fact that he wants to do something different, something you don’t get to see in the NWSL every time because mostly this league is about transition. But he wants something different. He wants to keep the ball; he wants to play an attacking style of football. And I feel like coming from Barcelona, it’s something I would really love to be a part of.”
