It was at the beginning of January that Peter Gerhardsson happened to say too much.

At a press conference, the national team captain said that Paulina Nyström, 22, has signed for Everton.

When Gerhardsson was informed that the transfer had not become official, he replied:

- I don't know where Paulina Nyström is going.

Now the striker has finished with a new club - but it's not Everton.

The Swede has signed for the Italian big club Juventus.

"Right environment for me"

- It is an incredibly nice and fantastic club in many ways.

I really believe that this is the right environment for me, says Nyström to the Juventus website.

She has signed a contract that runs through the summer of 2025.

Last year, the 22-year-old scored ten goals in Eskilstuna United.
