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 finalized deal, which was completed just before the transfer window closed.
“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 joined Bay FC earlier this year after a highly successful stint with FC Barcelona Femení, where she secured multiple league titles, Champions League trophies, and Golden Boot awards.
During last season, Oshoala started 23 of 25 games for Bay FC, scoring seven goals. However, this year, her playing time has diminished, with five starts in 12 matches and no goals scored. Her move to Al Hilal marks a significant signing for the club, which finished sixth in the 2024-25 season amid the league’s expansion from eight to ten teams.
At Al Hilal, she will be reunited with Super Falcons teammates Ashleigh Plumptre and Francisca Ordega as they continue to strengthen their squad.
