Allianz presents: The Squared Ball
For women, talent and motivation alone are rarely enough to guarantee a financially secure footing in professional football. In the top European football leagues, more than one in ten women are not paid a salary at all. For female players, trapped between their high-performance sport and the difficulties of financial insecurity, it’s like playing the game with a squared ball.
Allianz is shining a light on the challenges faced by female footballers and helping talented young players achieve their goals with confidence and financial know-how.
