List of foreign Women's Super League players

Seasons are those in which the player has played at least one Women's Super League game.

For example, "2017–22" indicates that the player has played in every season from 2017–18 to 2021–22, but not necessarily every calendar year from 2017 to 2022.

Similarly, a player making their debut in 2019, during the 2019–20 season, will have '2019–20' after their name but this does not necessarily mean they played in 2020.

For each country, the leading appearance-maker is indicated by the number of matches that they played in the Women's Super League as of the end of the 2023–24 season.
