From Champions League winners to exciting young talents, there have been plenty of eye-catching players on the move in this summer’s transfer window
This summer’s Women’s Super League transfer window has had pretty much everything. It’s had a record-breaking transaction, taking Olivia Smith to Arsenal for the first million pound fee in the women’s game; it’s had heroes of the Lionesses’ European Championship triumph on the move, with Michelle Agyemang loaned back to Brighton and Chloe Kelly making her Arsenal switch permanent; and it’s seen established superstars move to the English top-flight for the first time, including two Champions League winners in Fridolina Rolfo and Ellie Carpenter.
It means there are a lot of new faces for fans of the WSL to get to know this summer, be they players who have already made a real name for themselves overseas, or young, upcoming talents with the potential to be world-beaters. That intrigue permeates across the league, too, with it not just the big guns who have been making a splash in the market.
