“Asisat Oshoala renewed her contract with FC Barcelona until June 30, 2024. The striker, who ended her association with the Club at the end of the season, has sealed her continuity for two more years alongside president Joan Laporta and manager Xavier Puig, in the Camp Nou presidential office,”
an official club statement read.
The three-time Africa Women’s Cup of Nations winner also expressed excitement at renewing her deal with the Spanish champions.
“I am just happy to be in the best team in the world. Not just because of their football, because you look outside the pitch and because of how they treat footballers to keep improving,”
Oshoala said.
“I am a striker and I want to keep scoring more goals. I love it. The goal is to keep growing and to be happy. ”
