Seven club titles

Oshoala won the league and two cup titles with Rivers Angels in 2014 and 2013. At Arsenal Ladies, she won the FA Women's Cup in 2016 before winning two league titles with Dalian Quanjian in China in 2017 and 2018.

She has a chance of adding at least a title to her name as Barcelona compete in three competitions this season.

Barcelona are currently top of the Primera Division as they seek their first league title in five years and face Atletico Madrid in the quarterfinals of the UEFA Women’s Champions League. The Spanish Cup is still available for them to fight for.

The Nigeria international first joined Barcelona on a loan deal in January 2019 before signing a permanent deal with the Spanish side five months later..
