Denmark's Johanna Rasmussen goes to Umeå
Umeå IK today announced that they have reached an agreement on a one year contract with Denmark's winger/forward Johanna Rasmussen, presently playing for Fortuna Hjørring in Denmark's premier league. Umeå's Andrée Jeglertz calls Rasmussen a super signing and in particular mentions her "speed and her sensitive left foot". Rasmussen says that going to Umeå is "a wonderful challenge and a great opportunity".
24 year old Johanna Rasmussen was approached by Umeå already before the 2007 season, but didn't want to change clubs and leave Denmark just before the World Cup. She is Umeå's first new signing for 2008, but it is expected that she will be followed be more.

At the other end of the Damallsvenskan spectrum, newcomers Kristianstads DFF are close to signing Göteborg's goalkeeper Maria Edman. Kristianstad's sport director Ulf Berglund says that the 23 year old won't give any answer until after the season is finished, but adds that they have met in Kristianstad and that she is pleased with the club and the club is pleased with her.
Berglund also confirms that he still is in talks with Erla Arnardottír (last club Jersey Sky Blue in USA) and Therese Björck (Qbik) and will have former Malmö attacker Mia Westerbladh (now Stattena) and Husie's defender Therese Persson on trial. He finally conforms that he has initiated contacts with "two younger, but still well-qualified players", just on the verge of the US national team.
