Djurgården players finding new clubs
Most of Djurgården's foreign stars have decided to leave the Stockholm club and are slowly finding their new addresses.
Germany's Ariane Hingst, who left after completing her two year contract, has, somewhat surprising to me, agreed on a two and a half year contract with FFC Frankfurt.

Belgian Femke Maes leaves after only half a season, home-sick according to Djurgården. She was spotted in the crowd attending the UEFA Women's Cup quarter final between Duisburg and Frankfurt and immediately surrounded by rumors about a shift to Duisburg, a town that actually is within commuting distance from Maes' Belgian home. Maes herself ducked all questions: "I have time until the end of [the transfer window in] January to make up my mind about a new club".

Nadine Angerer has declared her interest in playing a year in the new American league. Her agent Siegfried Dietrich is trying to get the best possible offer for her, but has no doubts where it would be best for Angerer to play. Financially, she would be better off in Germany. The salary cap placed on the American clubs, according to Dietrich € 420,000 a year for the entire roster, makes it hard for the WPS league to offer really competetive wages. He is also wary about the durability of the new league, in particular with the recent economic recession, and the short season doesn't make for good conditions for a top player. Still, Angerer is keen on living in USA for a period and seems prepared to take a pay cut. But she has to have landed a deal before the end of January, when the transfer window for the German and most European leagues close.
