The average annual salary for a female professional football player globally is $10,900 USD (£8,400 GBP, $17,000 AUD), says Fifa’s annual report on the women’s game, a figure skewed by a small number of top clubs.
Among the teams Fifa designated as Tier 1, which includes 41 clubs from 16 countries, the average salary was around $24,030, although 16 of those top clubs paid an average gross salary of over $50,000, according to the Setting the Pace, Fifa Benchmarking Report on Women’s Football released on Monday.
