Damallsvenskan Newsblog - Player signings in Sunnanå

Sunnanå winger Maria Nordbrandt (previously with Umeå) has signed a new 1 year contract with her club, turning down an offer from Kif Örebro. Two other key players, Anna Bodén and Sanna Frostevall, have contract offers but are still thinking about them. Umeå Södra's 18 year old midfielder Josefin Johansson (10 goals in 1st division this season) has visited Skellefteå and the club and is a highly probable signing.
Sunnanå has also offered Mirjam Marklund a contract. Mirjam, Hanna's younger sister, left Sunnanå after the 2005 season to focus on her education in Stockholm. Halfway into the 2006 season she got persuaded by AIK to join the club. AIK were by then an obvious promotion candidate, but leaking in goals and the defense needed to be tightened. Mirjam gave experience and stability to the young AIK defense and the team conceded only 12 goals in 15 matches with her, to compare with 16 goals in the 7 first matches. Mirjam, who also has a proposals from AIK, says she is tempted to return home and play with Hanna.
