Trained in Denmark, Sofie Svava began her professional career at just 16 years old, signing her first contract with Brøndby, a Danish first division club (2016). With her teammates, she won the Danish Cup in 2018, followed by the Elitedivisionen championship in 2019.
In July 2019, she joined FC Rosengård in Sweden, where she won the Swedish league title before transferring to Wolfsburg. During this time, the Scandinavian player made eight appearances and added two more trophies to her collection: the German Cup in 2021 and the German Championship in 2022.
After a successful stint in Northern Europe, Sofie Svava joined Real Madrid in Spain in January 2022. Since her arrival, the Danish player has accumulated around fifty appearances in all competitions.
A regular in the Danish national team since 2019, the left-back made her fiftieth appearance in June.
Olympique Lyonnais Féminin is delighted to have Sofie Svava on board for the coming seasons. The left-back, who will bolster Joe Montemurro’s defense, will begin her Lyon adventure this summer.
L’Olympique Lyonnais est un club historique avec un palmarès impressionnant. Après de nombreux échanges avec le club, j’ai su que c’était le bon choix pour moi. J’ai entendu parler de la convivialité des personnes ici et de leur volonté constante de gagner. La mentalité du club est formidable, et c’est ce que j’apprécie le plus.
