Raissa spent last season with another club from Finland Merilappi United, which will make her adaptation easier this time. The young talent has already earned 45 caps with the Cameroon National Team, and has taken part in a number of high level international events including this year’s FIFA Women’s World Cup in Canada, 2012 Olympic Games in London, and a few CAF African Women Championships.

Raissa will join her new club for their pre-season training camp in February. Despite her young age Raissa is a very skillful, intelligent, and experienced player. She will surely increase the stability in the center of Åland’s midfield and will help increase the team’s ball possession percentage as they aim to win 2016 Finland’s women’s premier league – Naisten Liiga.

LTA Agency wish a very good season to Raissa and her new club and good luck.

The Cameroonian striker Gaelle Enganamouit, Cote D’Ivoire’s forward Ines N’Rehy and the Cameroon winger Aboudi Onguene, have all been nominated for CAF Best African Women Player of the Year 2015 Award.

All three players participated in the FIFA Women’s World Cup in Canada with Gaelle and Aboudi leading Cameroon past the group stage in a historic first final tournament appearance. In addition to that, Gaelle completed a great season in Swedish Damallsvenskan helping Eskilstuna United to second in the League and becoming the best goalscorer in Sweden with 18 League goals. The “shooting queen” has recently joined powerhouse and reigning Swedish champions FC Rosengård to wrap up a highly successful 2015.

Vero came on as a sub in the 71st minute of the game, when the result was 0:3 to Bayern and recorded 20 minutes of action. The match finished 0:5, and after the match Vero was very happy that she played a few minutes after a long time out of competition. Following such a long injury, it’s extremely important to carefully manage her match fitness levels and playing time.

LTA Agency wishes Vero good health and many trophies with FC Bayern.

The Cote D’Ivoire international won both 2015 Russian Cup and 2015 Russian League in the same season.

Zvezda-2005 Perm defended their Supreme Division title with a 5:0 home victory against Chertanovo on the last day of the season. Nahi joined Zvezda at the beginning of 2014 and won the league in her first year in Russia. This season she added the Russian Cup making it a double.

The second place in the top Russian League was deservedly won by FC Rossiyanka with two LTA players in the squad – Cote D’Ivoire international forward Ines N’Rrehy and Cameroon international winger Gabrielle Aboudi. They finished just two points behind the champions from Zvezda and have earned automatic qualification to the 2016-2017 UEFA Women’s Champions League.

Hedvig Lindahl, Caroline Seger and Gaelle Enganamouit were all recognized for their achievements at the Swedish Football Federation’s annual awards ceremony – Fotbollsgalan 2015.

As expected Gaelle took home the “golden boot” for the best goal scorer in Sweden with her 18 goals in Damallsvenskan, which have helped her team Eskilstuna United to finish second in the League and qualify for the Champions League.

Seger was deservedly named best midfielder of the year. She was excellent in her first season in France as she led Paris Saint-Germain to second in the League, to the UEFA Women’s Champions League final in Berlin, and was named team captain.

The star of the night was Hedvig with her double award for best goalkeeper of the year and most importantly for the best Swedish female player – the “Diamantbollen,” which she has won for the first time in her career. Hedvig has had a remarkable year leading Chelsea FC to a historic double by winning FA Women’s Cup and FA Women’s Super League in her first year in England.

Olivia Schough has signed a contract extension with Eskilstuna United.

Olivia came to Eskilstuna United from the Russian team FC Rossiyanka in the beginning of this season, which has proved to be her best season in Damallsvenskan so far. She appeared in every single League match for Eskilstuna playing a key role in the team’s impressive performance and second place finish. She recorded six goals and seven assists in those games.

The 23-year old Cameroonian international forward Gaëlle Enganamouit signed a contract with Swedish giants FC Rosengård.

Gaelle became the best goalscorer in Damallsvenskan this season with 18 goals, the achievement which earned her the title – “Shooting Queen.” It has been a great season for both Gaelle and Eskilstuna United, who finished second in the League just a single point behind the champions Rosengård and earned the qualification for next year’s UEFA Women’s Champions League. Gaelle leaves Eskilstuna United after 2 highly successful seasons in which she has rapidly progressed to become the player she is today.
during the  FIFA Women's World Cup 2015 Group C match between Cameroon and Ecuador at BC Place Stadium on June 8, 2015 in Vancouver, Canada.

This year has been additionally remarkable for Gaelle as she took part in the 2015 FIFA Women’s World Cup in Canada with Cameroon National Team the only African side advancing past the group stage and Gaelle becoming the first African player ever to score a hat-trick in a FIFA Women’s World Cup final tournament match.

“I’d like to congratulate Gaelle on her hard work and dedication over the past two years and also give credit to Viktor Eriksson (head coach at Eskilstuna United) who has been a key figure in providing Gaelle with the necessary instruction, support, and confidence without which it would have been impossible for her to reach the level that now has earned her the move to the Swedish champions.” said LTA Agency’s managing partner, Anton Maksimov.

Gaelle will join her new club in January and is fully focused on taking up the new challenge of continuing to develop her individual game and helping FC Rosengård to win back the Swedish title and progress as far as possible in the UEFA Women’s Champions League.

The 20-year-old Cote D’Ivoire international won the 2015 Lithuanian League also known as “A Lyga.”
Elloh CL

Elloh’s team, Gintra-Universitetas of Siauliai, finished the season with a huge lead over the second place LSU-Zara and with positive 88 goals difference. In the final match against Zalgiris Vilnius, Rebecca scored a hat-trick, and the final result was 9:0. Interesting fact is that two other LTA players played almost the whole season with Gintra and most certainly have played an important part of winning the title – the Cote D’Ivoire internationals Ange N’Guessan (winger) and Rita Akaffou (midfielder).

All three of the Elephantes Dames (as Cote D’Ivoire national Team players are called) have made their debut for Gintra in the preliminary round of this year’s UEFA Women’s Champions League, and Rebecca Elloh is expected to return next year when Gintra will attempt to go through to the main round of the Champions League again after the success they had in 2014-2015 competition when they reached the round of 16.
