'They will help teams grow' - Abam and Kanu stress necessity of Africans for Spanish clubs

Cameroon's Michaela Abam and Nigeria's Uchenna Kanu believe the signing of more Africans will bring quality and title successes to clubs in the Spanish Primera Iberdrola in the coming years.

Spain is becoming the dominant force in European women's football in recent years, with Barcelona reaching the Champions League final last season and in the semi-final with Atletico Madrid.

Behind the rise, reigning African Women's Footballer of the Year Asisat Oshoala is a shining example as she made history, scoring the only goal in the Catalan's maiden European final in 2019.
