HERITAGE
Her parents are Albanian but were born and raised in Kosovo before moving to Sweden. "I was born in Sweden, but at the same time I'm really proud of my heritage. I'm both Albanian and Swedish. My parents tell me young people really look up to me because I'm one of the few Albanian footballers in the women's game that reached the top level. I love Sweden and my family. I am super happy that they came here and that I was born here." (morningstaronline.co.uk, 21 Mar 2018; expressen.se, 21 Jul 2017)
