Everton have completed the signing of Danish youth international midfielder Karoline Olesen on a two-year deal.
FAWSL Full-Time were informed of the transfer via an official club press release from The Blue Girls this afternoon. It has been reported that Everton have paid an undisclosed fee to secure the teenager’s services.
Olesen joins Everton from Danish top flight club Fortuna Hjørring. The midfielder has been in and around the senior squad since she was 16 years of age.
On the international stage, Olesen has represented Denmark up to Under-19 level and she is being tipped for senior honours in the future.
After signing on with Everton, Olesen said “It’s very exciting to be here. I’m very happy to start my journey as an Everton player.
“I had a great time at Fortuna where I met Brian [Sørensen] and Stephen [Neligan] who are now coaching here at Everton. I’m very excited to work with them again because they’re great coaches and they can take me to the next level. I have a lot of trust in Brian, so I’m excited to take the next step of my journey with him.
“I’m looking forward to meeting all the fans and hopefully, we can achieve great things together.”
Olesen is Everton’s fifth signing of the summer transfer window.
