What kind of enery does the soccer player transfer to the ball

It's called mechanical energy.

During a kick, the energy transferred to the ball is primarily the kinetic energy.

Explanation:

The swing of the lower leg / foot has a certain amount if kinetic energy, which later transfers to the ball as kinetic energy after the foot-ball collision (with some amount of the original energy dissipating due to friction, absorption and transformation to heat)
