Women football player salaries were rising before the coronavirus pandemic amid the growing popularity of the game, and increased investment from clubs and sponsors, research from FIFPRO’s Raising Our Game report suggests.
FIFPRO is working with other football stakeholders to mitigate the effects of the pandemic and continue the development of the women's game.
The average net club salary of national team players rose to 4,123 euros per month, according to a survey of 186 players from 18 national teams*, 13 of which played at the 2019 FIFA World Cup.
That is an increase of 51 percent when compared to what national team players were earning in 2016, when the average wage was 2,734 euros.
