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.

Unfortunately Hedvig wasn’t able to attend the ceremony held at the Ericsson Globe in Stockholm due to the preparations for an important Champions League match against German powerhouse VFL Wolfsburg, and her reception speech was broadcast in a special video.

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.

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.

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

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.

LTA Agency’s new client Glódís Perla Viggósdóttir has extended her contract with Eskilstuna United for another year.

The 20-year old Icelandic international has instantly become a constant figure in the starting eleven for Eskilstuna since her arrival in Sweden at the beginning of the 2015 Damallsvenskan season. She was one of only three players who played every minute of every match in this year’s successful campaign, which brought Eskilstuna second place in the League and automatic qualification for 2016-2017 UEFA Women’s Champions League. The young talent has already earned 34 caps (scoring twice) for senior Iceland Women’s National Team.

Glódís Perla said this after the signing: “I’m really happy to have extended my contract and to be a part of Eskilstuna United for another year. It is a good club with good potential, and I look forward to continue where we left off and develop our game to the next level next season.”

Another player represented by LTA won a title in England in 2015.
Following Hedvig Lindahl’s League and FA Cup double success, it is Arsenal’s top striker Natalia Pablos Sanchon who has won the Continental Tyres Cup.

Spanish international joined Arsenal in the preseason, and what’s better than finishing the first season at the club with a trophy. Having already reached a final of a competition in England previously with Bristol Academy (2013 FA Cup Final ironically lost to her current club), Natalia has now gone one better by winning her first domestic trophy with Arsenal. She has continued to prove that she is one of the elite strikers in England scoring 11 goals this season, which makes her Arsenal’s best goalscorer.

Arsenal Ladies won the Continental Cup for the fourth time in their history. They beat a strong Notts County team 3:0 in the final.

Malin Diaz signed a 2-year contract extension with Eskilstuna United.

The 21-year old Swedish international joined the team in the summer of 2014 and quickly became a constant part of the starting eleven. The midfielder who was also in the squad for Sweden’s Women’s World Cup in Canada 2015, had some words to share after the signing:

“I’m very happy to be part of Eskilstuna’s team. I hope we can continue to build next season from where we left off this year.”

We wish the young talent good luck and a lot of success with Eskilstuna United and Sweden National Team.

The Romanian international forward Laura Roxana Rus (better known as Lala) and her club Suwon FMC finished 3rd in the 2015 South Korean professional women’s league (IBK WK-League).

Lala became best goal scorer of the league scoring 17 goals. She played a major role in Suwon’s qualifying for the WK-League play-offs for the first time in four years. Lala follows another player represented by LTA who won League’s best goal scorer title – Gaelle Enganamouit who recently became 2015 Swedish Damallsvenskan’s “scoring queen” with 18 goals.

FC Rosengård won the Damallsvenskan league with a brilliant performance in the final match of the season against Linköping.

Before the game FC Rosengård were 1 point ahead of their first place challenger from Eskilstuna. Only a victory was going to guarantee them the title, so they started “on fire” and after 23 minutes they were ahead 2:0. The final result was five to nothing, and one of the best performances this season was kept for the match that matters most at the end.

The fact that FC Rosengård holds the second best defense and the best attack in the 2015 Damallsvenskan should speak for itself. The 2015 Damallsvenskan was very interesting by the fact that the title race was very dynamic from day one, but at the end FC Rosengård prove that in Sweden they were the most consistent team the whole season and deserved the tittle most.

“Remarkable” and “historic” are the words that best describe the 2015 season for Chelsea Ladies FC.

Since joining the team at the beginning of the season, Hedvig Lindahl became part of the best season so far for Chelseas Ladies, winning both FA Cup and Women’s Super League for the first time in their history and winning them both in one season, the achievement surely to be remembered for years to come. The key to success for every winning football team is a good defense, and a huge part of it is the goalkeeper’s position. With just 10 goals conceded all season, the Swedish international has proved an integral part in Chelsea winning League and Cup double.

Chelsea finished the League season with a 4:0 victory over Sunderland and proved that they are the best team in England. Hedvig played 81 minutes when she was replaced by Marie Hourihan. It was a historic day for the Chelsea Ladies, who celebrated on the Wheatsheaf Park field in front of a record 2,710 crowd which included men’s team captain John Terry. Hedvig and her teammates will now look to make the season even more memorable as they start their maiden UEFA Women’s Champions League campaign against Scottish Champions, Glasgow, this week.
