Taking into attention the closing half of the 22/23 season, the 2023 international summer time tournaments, and the 23/24 season, we compiled a list of the pinnacle 10 footballers as of 2023, looking at solo woman accolades, performances, team contributions, and efforts throughout each home clubs and countrywide groups.
1. Aitana Bonmatí

With Alexia Putellas, who crowned this list in 2021 and 2022, absent for a huge bite of the year, Bonmatí rose to the function of superstar participant for membership and the United States. She guided Barcelona to a league name and a Champions League victory and became the force behind Spain’s ancient World Cup triumph. Three goals and two assists in Australia and New Zealand saw her named participant of the tournament. Bonmatí is a magician with the hard forex of records and trophies to back up her brilliance.
2. Sam Kerr
Kerr missed the bulk of her domestic World Cup in what became a huge private blow to her and the United States’s hopes. Yet in actual Kerr style, she is back to attain a stunner against England in the semi-finals. While the game led to defeat for Australia, it summed up a year suffering from key moments for Kerr as she stayed inside the top 3 for a third successive year.
In the FA Cup final, the striker netted the only goal, and on the league’s last day, she contributed more, helping Chelsea secure the domestic double. By the end of the last season, she had an impressive record of 12 goals and five assists in the Women’s Super League (WSL). This season, it took Kerr a while to hit pinnacle tools but she scored 5 dreams inside the Champions League to be joint pinnacle scorer inside the opposition earlier than the devastating news that she will omit a maximum of 2024 with an ACL harm.
3. Salma Paralluelo
Paralluelo’s purple-hot form this season sees her turn out to be the very best new access in a pinnacle 100, eclipsing Rose Lavelle who came straight in at No. 7 in 2019. A versatile forward, Paralluelo’s function across the Spain frontline at the World Cup offered La Roja an exclusive alternative and her region-final and semi-final dreams have been important.
For Barcelona, 11 dreams last season and 6 already on this marketing campaign is mind-blowing, even earlier than you think in her five within the Champions League, wherein the 20-year-vintage sits as joint pinnacle scorer with Sam Kerr. Paralluelo is nowhere close to the finished product, which simply makes her fulfillment all the extra extraordinary.
4. Keira Walsh
The classy midfield maestro is England’s maximum-ranked player this 12 months, transferring up 5 spots as she is going from strength to energy in her now familiar environment at Barcelona, at the same time as continuing to play a pivotal function for the Lionesses.
Walsh supplied a heart-in-mouth moment when she went down injured in England’s second World Cup recreation in opposition to Denmark, however ultimately recovered to help the team attain the final. At Barça, Walsh pulls the strings and, along with Patri Guijarro and Aitana Bonmatí, has created one of the most formidable midfields the women’s sport has seen. She’s additionally popped up with dreams regionally and in Europe, but her recreation stays based totally on her elegant passing exceptional.
5. Fridolina Rolfö
A sharp upward thrust within the scores for the third year in a row for Rolfö, who has grown to be one of the greatest in the global in now not just one position but. Mastering the artwork of the left-returned function for Barcelona and as a left winger for Sweden, Rolfö scored eight dreams created eight greater remaining seasons within the league, and scored 4 desires in Barça’s successful Champions League run.
Not awful for a full lower back. Rolfö also scored three instances in a more advanced position as Sweden gained bronze in the World Cup, however, sadly damage has dominated her out of the movement. Still, Rolfö’s crowning second got here earlier than that: scoring the winner as Barcelona came from 2-0 down to win the Champions League very last in May.
6. Alexandra Popp
Has one player ever come so close to dragging a kingdom through a World Cup? Despite 4 dreams in Germany’s 3 institution games, it was not sufficient to avoid a surprise go-out before the knockout rounds, however, no fault fell at Popp’s toes. After 2022 which noticed her made the top 10 for the first time, she backed that up with a Golden Boot-triumphing marketing campaign within the Bundesliga last season.
Three dreams on Wolfsburg’s way to the Champions League very last, along with one within the final itself, capped off a first-rate first half of the year for Popp. The 2nd has seen her become an extra writer than a scorer but it’s Miles Popp’s deadly aerial capacity that units her aside from her friends.
7. Caroline Graham Hansen
The silky, skillful winger is amongst the game’s elite and, after a frustrating World Cup, has again to pinnacle shape early this season for Barcelona. To take a seat top of the standings for each goal and assist in Liga F says plenty, with the Norwegian tallying nine in both tables already this campaign.
With an ability to make the hardest things appear simple, Graham Hansen is still left out for the big awards however rises a place here. She has played a massive position in Barcelona’s success each locally and in the Champions League, setting up the intention that got them returned into May’s showpiece final. Norway’s World Cup became dismal, however, her goal in opposition to the Philippines reminded the sector outside Spain what she has to offer.
8. Mapi León
Despite standing on her floor to sit out the World Cup for Spain, León’s performances have kept on improving and she is the highest-ranked principal defender this year, breaking into the top 10 for the first time. It is a mark of her expertise that the 28-12-month-old has made this bounce despite now not participating in the event with the most eyes on it.
One of the best at gambling out from the lower back, she’s also a brick wall internal her box and is developing a knack for stoning up with desires too. Last season, she scored 3 and had 5 assists in Liga F, stats some forwards could be thrilled with. León has come to be the last center again in the current game and is at the peak of her powers.
9. Mary Earps
Unsurprisingly, the Manchester United and England goalkeeper is another of the large movers on this year’s list, leaping 39 locations and into the pinnacle 10. Crowned the 2023 BBC Sports Personality of the Year, Earps was in top shape at some stage in the primary half of the 12 months off the back of a super Euros, assisting United into Europe for the first time.
She persevered with a string of surprising performances in the World Cup, culminating in a penalty shot inside the very last to deny Jenni Hermoso.
