Canada forward Olivia Smith has become the most expensive player in women’s soccer history at a cost of one million pounds ($1.34 million) after Arsenal signed her from Liverpool.

Arsenal breaks the million-pound mark for the first time, with Canadian Olivia Smith becoming the most-expensive women's football signing in history in the move from Liverpool.

Olivia Smith has played just 1,578 minutes of top-flight football, but that was enough for Arsenal. In just one season at Liverpool, the 20-year-old convinced the Gunners she was good enough for them to make her the first £1million player in the history of women’s football.
