Speaking after signing for the European giants “This is obviously one of the best clubs in the world. The team has a great history and wonderful football mentality,” Oshoala said.

“I am excited about playing with Vicky Losada again. She’s a great midfielder, with a lot of energy and skill. I also met Fabiana in China and she helped me to make this decision.

“My goal is to strengthen the team and help them to win and make history. This is a fantastic opportunity because I’m sure something big will happen here,” the 2018 AWCON winner said.
