The club sees it as a unique investment that will take the team to the next level to be able to participate and challenge at the top.
- It feels very good.
This is a type of player that we have not had in many, many years in the squad, says Frenne Båverud who is the coach and sports manager at VästeråsIrsta HF.

But the more we talked, it felt more and more clean to make that decision, says Ulrika Olsson.
30-year-old Ulrika Olsson last played in Skuru IK, but terminated her contract in the middle of the playoffs.
This is because she felt offended that her contract there was not extended due to her age.
The left-back was named the most valuable player in the SHE season 2019–2020, and during this year's regular season she accounted for 130 goals and 106 assists - before breaking her contract with Skuru.
In the clip, she tells how she feels about the conflict with her previous team and how she sees the new start.
