(Reuters) - Barclays has signed a new three-year deal to sponsor the Women's Super League (WSL) and Championship as part of a record investment for women's sport in Britain, England's Football Association (FA) said on Wednesday.

Banking group Barclays will invest more than 30 million pounds ($39.84 million) in women's and girls' football from 2022 to 2025, doubling the existing investment when it became the title sponsor of the WSL in 2019.
