The Orlando Pride of the National Women's Soccer League has made a significant move by acquiring Zambian forward Barbra Banda for a club-record transfer fee. Banda has signed a four-year deal with the Pride, with the team paying a substantial $740,000 to Chinese Women’s Super League club Shanghai Shengli FC.

This transfer fee stands as the second-highest in women's soccer history, following closely behind the recent transfer of Zambia forward Racheal Kundananji to NWSL expansion team Bay FC for $788,000.
