List of foreign A-League Women players
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is a list of foreign players in the Australian A-League Women which commenced play in 2008 as the W-League and was rebranded in 2021. The following players must meet both of the following two criteria:
- Have played in at least one A-League Women game (including finals). Players who were signed by A-League Women clubs, but did not play in any competitive games, are not included.
- Are considered foreign, i.e., outside Australia determined by the following:
- A player is considered foreign if she is not eligible to play for the national team of Australia.
More specifically,
- If a player has been capped on international level, the national team is used; if she has been capped by more than one country, the highest level (or the most recent) team is used. These include Australia players with dual citizenship.
- If a player has not been capped on international level, her country of birth is used, except those who were born abroad from Australian parents or moved to Australia at a young age, and those who clearly indicated to have switched her nationality to another nation.
Clubs listed are those which have contracted the player. Note that calendar years are used. This follows general practice in expressing years a player spent at club.
As of October 2023, 39 different nations have been represented in the A-League Women. Venezuela is the most recent nation to be represented with Mariana Speckmaier debuting for Wellington Phoenix on 15 October 2023.
