Zambian international Racheal Kundananji can now call herself the most expensive player in the history of women’s football. The American Bay FC takes over the 23-year-old attacker from Real Madrid for 735,000 euros.
Bay FC, a new American club from the San Francisco region (California), did not provide details about the transfer fee on Tuesday, but the American ESPN and the Spanish Marca, among others, are talking about an amount of 787,000 dollars (735,000 euros).
The previous record dates back to January when Chelsea paid 450,000 euros plus 50,000 euros in bonuses to Spanish Levante for Colombian striker Mayra Ramirez.

In any case, the transfer amounts in women’s football are still far from the enormous sums involved in men’s football. The record is still the 222 million euros that PSG put on the table in 2017 to wrest Neymar from FC Barcelona.
Kundananji signed a contract with her new club until 2027 (with option). She has played for Real Madrid since the summer of 2022, scoring 33 goals in 43 games. She participated with Zambia at the World Cup in Australia and New Zealand in 2023 and at the Tokyo Olympic Games in 2021.
