Transfer News: Everton complete signing of Nicoline Sorensen

Denmark striker Nicoline Sorensen has joined Everton on a two-year contract. She arrives from Brondby having been both top scorer and Player of the Year in the Danish League last season.

“I feel really proud and honoured to be joining Everton," Sorensen told evertonfc.com.

"It's clear from speaking to Willie [manager Willie Kirk] that the club is ambitious and it felt like a great match for my next step. The WSL is one of the world's biggest leagues and the setup around the players here is incredibly professional."

Kirk added: “I’m really excited about Nico’s signing. I’ve been tracking her for a couple of years now, seeing her develop with Brondby and becoming a key member of the Denmark starting XI.

"Nico gives us a lot of options. Her attributes and tactical know-how will allow us to play her in a number of attacking positions and she’ll be a big asset."

Sorensen is the third recent signing at Everton, following Norway defender Moe Wold and England Under 21 star Poppy Pattinson.
