The 29-year-old Swiss international (107 caps, 49 goals) comes from Chelsea, whose colors she has worn since December 2016. With the London club, she won three English championships (2017, 2018 and 2020 after the '' championship stop due to coronavirus) and an English Cup (2018). She even eliminated PSG in the quarter-finals of the Champions League last year.
The professional since the age of 15 has evolved in her country (Lucerne), Sweden (Umea, Rosengard), the United States (Atlanta) and Germany (Wolfsburg). She also has four Swedish championship titles to her name, two with Umea (2007 and 2008) and as many with Rosengard (2013 and 2014).
N ° 7 as Kylian Mbappé
Named best player of the Euro under 19 years old in 2009, the star striker from Switzerland also took part in the first World Cup of Swiss selection in 2015 in Canada, with a knockout round. She was twice elected player of the year in Switzerland (2009, 2015).
At PSG, she will wear the number 7, like her male counterpart, a certain Kylian Mbappé. She has already got to know her new partners since she participated in training this Friday at the Bougival center (Yvelines).
Extended by a year earlier this week, Parisian coach Olivier Echouafni will be able to align him during the Final 8 of the Champions League (from August 22 to 30 in the Spanish Basque Country). UEFA regulations allow clubs to line up six offseason recruits on the match sheet, three of whom have already played competition with their previous club. Ramona Bachmann is not in the latter case since Chelsea was not qualified for this edition.
