Therese Sjögran stays in Malmö

How does Therese Sjögran make her living? Does MFF pay her anything, or does she work or go to school? ( It seems like much of the league is about to go to school or is in school. )

Sjögran has a part-time job, last I checked it was with the local BMW-dealer. Back-office sort of job, not sales.

Malmö FF pays their players, no huge sums but most probably more than the Damallsvenskan average SEK 25,000 a year. And as a member of the national team and the Olympic programme she get's support from them too.

A lot of Damallsvenskan players are in school. Partly it's because a lot of them are in that age - late teens, early twenties. But it's also something that often can be combined with playing on a (semi)professional level more easily than a job.
