London City Lionesses have broken the world record for a women’s football transfer by signing the France midfielder Grace Geyoro from Paris Saint-Germain for €1.65m (£1.43m), the Guardian understands.
The deal is believed to have gone to the wire on Thursday but was completed before the Women’s Super League’s transfer window closed at 11pm BST and the 28-year-old has become the third player to break the world record in the women’s game in less than two months.
