LEAVING SWEDEN
In July 2021 she signed for Everton in the Women's Super League in England. "It has been a dream of mine to play in other countries and to try see how good I can be. I want to be one of the world's best football players and I feel this is a big step for me to reach that goal. I feel I'm going to learn a lot just by training with my teammates and by playing against teams with good players." (evertonfc.com, 10 Jul 2021)

FRIENDSHIP WITH ANGELDAHL
She has a special relationship with national teammate Filippa Angeldahl, whose father Christer was one of her coaches at her first club Vaksala SK in Uppsala, Sweden. "Christer is the one who has supported and helped me the most. It has been a security blanket to have Filippa by my side. We have always pushed each other, trained together, and jointly made some difficult decisions. Without her, I do not know if I would have reached the elite." (fogis.se, 10 Jul 2017)
