Chelsea signed the best defender to have ever graced women's football, according to Emma Hayes, for a world record transfer fee. Several other high-profile players left the NWSL for Europe. And Chloe Kelly had to take to social media to force a move.

Matt and Maggie explain what the movements from this January’s transfer window tell you about the changing power dynamics across players, leagues and clubs globally.

They also look at the demand for and supply of women’s football in pubs across the UK, and

answer a listener question about whether moves towards giving equal pay to men’s and women’s teams and players is promoting gender equality at the expense of sustainability.
