Oshoala Leaves Barcelona for Bay FC, Pens Emotional Letter To Team Mates

Super Falcons forward Asisat Oshoala has penned a goodbye message to teammates, staff, and supporters of Spanish side, Barcelona Femeni after joining Bay FC in the National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL), U.S.A.

The CAF Women Player of the Year joined the Spanish giants in 2019 on loan from Chinese side Dalian Quanjian. On May 31, 2019, Barcelona announced her full transfer to the club and extension until 2022.

The 29-year-old has signed a 2-year-old with Bay FC with an option for another year.

In a post on Instagram on Thursday, Oshoala stated that it was a privilege to play for the Champions League winner.

She wrote: As I bid farewell to this incredible team and the city that has been my home for the past 5 years, I am filled with mixed emotions. It has been an absolute honour and privilege to wear the FCB Femeni jersey and represent this prestigious club.

“Since joining the team in 2019, I have had the opportunity to be a part of some of the most memorable moments in the club’s history. Together, we have lifted several trophies, and these achievements are a testament to hard work, dedication and I feel privileged to have been a part of this team.

“But beyond the trophies and accolades, what I will cherish most are the relationships I have built with some of my teammates, coaches, staff, and amazing fans. You have become my family, and I will forever be grateful for the love and support you have shown me.

“As I embark on a new journey, I want you to know that FCB Femeni i will always hold a special place in my heart. I will carry with me the memories, lessons, and friendships that I have gained during my time here.

“Thank you for everything, FCB Femeni. You have given me more than I could have ever imagined, and I will always be a proud representative of this incredible club.

“With love and gratitude, Asisat Lamina Oshoala.”

Oshoala won 12 trophies during her time at the club, including the UEFA Women’s Champions League (2), scoring 107 goals in 149 appearances.
