Our senior women’s football reporter Emma Sanders has been responding to your inquiries as the Friday deadline of 23:00 BST draws closer.
A sampling of her answers to queries from WSL club supporters are shown below.
Will Walsh join Chelsea, Arsenal, or neither?
Beth: What is Keira Walsh’s most recent status?
Emma: Keira Walsh has one year left on her Barcelona contract, and she has already told the team that she wants to go home for personal reasons, therefore she does not plan to extend.
This implies that Barca will either lose her in a free transfer in a year or have the opportunity to profit from her this summer if multiple teams show interest.
Chelsea is looking for a midfield player and would have the money, while Arsenal has long had an interest in the player.
The issue is that Barcelona refuses to part with the property. They are not ready to disclose a price, but if they were to entertain any offer, it would almost certainly have to set a record for cost. Basically, we’re in a bit of a standoff.
Wednesday was a bank holiday in Spain, and Barca plays Real Sociedad in the league on Friday night at 19:00 BST, only hours before the WSL transfer deadline.
