Norway Women's Euro 2025 Squad Unveiled: Gemma Grainger Reveals Entire Team Lineup
Helloo! 😃 Let's dive into the Norway Women's Euros squad for 2025. Maren Mjelde is back for her ninth straight major tournament, leading a team aiming to improve on their last European Championship outing, where they failed to advance from the group stage, even suffering an 8-0 defeat to England. 😪
Ada Hegerberg, a football legend, takes up the captain's armband, replacing Mjelde after a decade in the role. There's no denying Hegerberg's influence, but she's facing a big challenge ahead, especially this summer. Joining her are some heavy hitters, including Caroline Graham Hansen, who's often considered one of the best in the world. 💐
Gemma Grainger, the new manager, has been appointed and has been instrumental in steering the team to qualification. The team has shown more consistency under her guidance, leaving fans hopeful for success in this year's tournament. Let's take a look at the squad:
