In an analysis of 22 women\u2019s teams in Europe, the highest monthly salary is as little as EUR 18k, while the lowest is EUR 40, according to a <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ecaeurope.com\/media\/3643\/eca_womens-club-football-analysis.pdf\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">European Club Association report (pdf)<\/a>. \u201cSalary is one of the biggest costs [for clubs], even though salaries in women\u2019s football cannot be compared to those in men\u2019s football,\u201d the report says.

A clear example of this phenomenon is Aston Villa\u2019s Alisha Lehmann, who has a following of 13.9 mn on Instagram, exceeding any others from her country \u2014 including tennis prodigy Roger Federer. Her 6.99% engagement translates into a media value over USD 300k per post, compared to Spaniard Sergio Ramos with 53 mn followers but only a 1.8% engagement rate, making his reach close to Lehmann\u2019s. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Although women\u2019s football has been rising in popularity, their financial performance still lags far behind male counterparts<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":606848,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"single-feature.php","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"newspack_ads_suppress_ads":false,"newspack_popups_has_disabled_popups":false,"newspack_sponsor_sponsorship_scope":"","newspack_sponsor_native_byline_display":"inherit","newspack_sponsor_native_category_display":"inherit","newspack_sponsor_underwriter_style":"inherit","newspack_sponsor_underwriter_placement":"inherit","ep_exclude_from_search":false,"_primary_brand":0,"newspack_featured_image_position":"","newspack_post_subtitle":"","newspack_article_summary_title":"Overview:","newspack_article_summary":"","newspack_hide_updated_date":false,"newspack_show_updated_date":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[7259],"tags":[633,375,663,162],"brand":[],"newspack_spnsrs_tax":[],"class_list":["post-606847","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-gender-equality","tag-enterprisepm","tag-gender","tag-gender-equality","tag-sports","wpautop","entry"],"acf":{"mongo_id":"7461e23f-5726-4e5a-bdc1-496ab0aa9a9a","is_powered_by":false,"story_type":"1","photo_url":"https:\/\/ent.news\/2023\/9\/1376.jpg","photo_position":"above","homepage_title":"","full_issue_title":"Bridging the global sports funding gap","related_issue":[606830],"teaser":"Although women\u2019s football has been rising in popularity, their financial performance still lags far behind male counterparts","voice_url":"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/ent.news\/audio\/2023\/9\/.37976993-c871-4f1d-9b80-880216ad5b39.mp3"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.1 (Yoast SEO v27.1.1) -
