Super Falcon skipper, Asisat Oshoala is now Barcelona Femeni's eighth most valuable player according to statistics from the Spanish football website, soccerdonna.

The Spanish website valued the Nigerian at €175,000 with a year left on her contract.

Alexia Putellas topped the ranking with €350,000, while Caroline Graham Hansen, Lieke Martens and Jennifer Hermoso are joint seconds with a market value of €300,000.
