Brazil led South America in outgoing women’s transfers in 2025

Brazil and Argentina shared the highest incoming count

Both associations recorded 51 incoming transfers in 2025. Brazil led outgoing transfers with 52, followed by Argentina with 39 and Colombia with 36. Colombia’s 47 incoming transfers were the third-highest in CONMEBOL. The counts describe registration movements and include transfers without a fee. Source 1 Source 2

The two directions had very different fee totals

Brazilian clubs recorded US$1,359,386 received on outgoing transfers against US$20,707 spent on incoming transfers. For Argentina, FIFA records zero spending and receipts despite 90 transfers across the two directions. A zero fee total in this data means the report attributes no transfer fee in that direction. It gives no measure of salaries or other player costs. Source 1

Fewer outgoing transfers came with similar reported receipts

The corresponding women’s report for 2024 lists 72 outgoing transfers and about US$1.38 million received for Brazil. In 2025 the outgoing count was 20 lower while receipts were within about US$23,000 of the prior year. The comparison cannot establish the distribution of individual fees, because the figures aggregate all transfers in each year. Source 1 Source 3

The reporting scope is international

FIFA reported 2,440 professional women’s international transfers worldwide in 2025, an increase of 6.3% from 2024. The association table counts moves crossing association borders. Its incoming and outgoing columns can include both ends of the same cross-border move when the sending and receiving clubs belong to two CONMEBOL associations. Source 2 Source 1
