Softfootball can confirm Real Madrid Femenino are set to complete one of the most exciting moves in women’s football after reaching an agreement to sign highly rated Swedish forward Felicia Schröder.
According to reports, all documents have already been signed, with the official unveiling expected in the coming days through a documentary scheduled to air on Swedish television. The move is viewed as a major statement by Real Madrid Women as they continue building for the future with some of the brightest young talents in world football.
Schröder arrives from BK Häcken and is widely regarded as one of the most promising attacking players of her generation. Despite being just 19 years old, she has already made a significant impact in Swedish football, earning recognition for her explosive pace, physical strength and clinical finishing ability.
The young forward enjoyed a breakthrough campaign that saw her named Damallsvenskan Player of the Year while also finishing as the league’s top scorer. Her performances have also earned her opportunities with the Sweden women’s national football team, further enhancing her reputation on the international stage.
Real Madrid’s pursuit of Schröder highlights the club’s growing ambition within the women’s game, with the Spanish giants continuing to invest heavily in emerging talent capable of becoming future global stars.
Away from club football, there was also significant recognition for Nigerian football icon Onome Ebi. The former Super Falcons captain has been selected for FIFA’s prestigious Players Executive Programme, an initiative designed to prepare current and former players and coaches for leadership positions within the football industry.
The programme aims to equip participants with executive, governance and management skills, helping them transition into influential roles beyond their playing careers. Ebi’s inclusion represents another milestone in her distinguished football journey and further highlights the growing presence of African football figures in global leadership development initiatives.
For both Schröder and Ebi, the latest developments mark important new chapters—one embarking on a major European career move, and the other preparing for a future shaping the game from the boardroom as well as the pitch.
