Women’s Super League clubs are already splashing the cash ahead of what is expected to be another thrilling campaign in 2023-24.
Chelsea secured a third successive WSL title last season — but Manchester United, Arsenal and Manchester City will all be intent on wrestling that crown from them.
This page will keep you updated with all the major transfers as they are confirmed.
Alessia Russo (Arsenal)
Arsenal sealed the most eye-catching capture of the summer so far with their free swoop for Alessia Russo from WSL rivals Manchester United.
The Gunners have finally landed the England star, 24, after United turned down a reported world-record bid for the Euro 2022 winner in January.
Cloe Lacasse (Arsenal)

Arsenal had already strengthened their forward options with the acquisition of Canadian forward Cloe Lacasse.
The 29-year-old arrives following a four-year spell in Portugal with Benfica.
Amanda Ilestedt (Arsenal)
The Gunners’ first signing of the off-season was the capture of Swedish centre-back Amanda Ilestedt, who reunites with boss Jonas Eidevall following their spell at Rosengard.
Ilestedt, 30, has joined in a free move from Paris Saint-Germain and looks a direct replacement for the departing Rafaelle Souza.
Daphne van Domselaar (Aston Villa)
Aston Villa also acted quickly to replace an outgoing star, with Dutch goalkeeper Daphne van Domselaar arriving to fill England stopper Hannah Hampton’s spot between the sticks.
Carla Ward will hope the former FC Twente keeper can aid the Villans in their efforts to gatecrash the WSL top four next season.
Pauline Bremer (Brighton)
Brighton’s men’s team have a reputation for securing eye-catching signings and their women’s side look to have followed suit.

Hannah Hampton (Chelsea)
Chelsea have added England goalkeeper Hampton to their ranks following her departure from Villa.
The 22-year-old stopper has signed a three-year deal at Kingsmeadow ahead of jetting off to the Women’s World Cup with the Lionesses.
Sjoeke Nusken (Chelsea)

Chelsea continue to strengthen following their domestic double in 2022-23 after adding highly-rated youngster Sjoeke Nusken as part of four arrivals so far.
The German midfielder, 22, has made the switch to Kingsmeadow from Frauen-Bundesliga outfit Eintracht Frankfurt.
Catarina Macario (Chelsea)
Replacing Danish superstar Pernille Harder was also high up Emma Hayes’ priority list and the Blues have done that by swooping for Catarina Macario from Lyon.
The United States forward, 23, will bolster the Blues’ frontline.
Ashley Lawrence (Chelsea)

Another Canadian is heading for English shores after Chelsea made Ashley Lawrence their fifth summer signing.
The forward, 28, joined on July 1 ahead of representing Canada at this summer’s Women’s World Cup.
Jill Roord (Manchester City)
Man City’s first business of the summer was to seal a move for Wolfsburg’s Dutch midfielder Jill Roord.
Euro 2017 winner Roord, 26, played in last season’s Champions League final defeat to Barcelona and spent two seasons at WSL rivals Arsenal between 2019 and 2021.
