Pernille Harder says she would be happy to lose the tag of being the most expensive player in women’s football with Barcelona on the verge of breaking the transfer record to sign Keira Walsh from Manchester City

Harder joined Chelsea for a fee of £300,000 in 2020 but Barca are in talks over a deal for Manchester City star Keira Walsh that is believed to be worth £400,000.

The Spanish transfer window closes this evening while the England’s deadline is Thursday and Harder would be more than happy for her transfer record to be broken before then.

‘It’s totally fine, I’m happy that it [transfer fees] keeps getting higher,’ Harder said.

‘That’s what I wanted, I wanted to start something new.
