Rhino: Agencies – Spanish club Tenerife announced today, Thursday, the signing of Norwegian women’s national team talent, midfielder Thea Sorbo. The Spanish club stated, via its official website, that the Norwegian talent, coming from Sweden’s Hammarby, will play with them on a loan system until the end of the current season.
Sorbo, 21, is considered one of the new faces, on the women’s soccer scene in Norway, as she started since 2018 playing with her country’s national team (under 15 years), before reaching the first team in 2023. She also participated in the first half of the current season with her former team, Hammarby of Sweden, in the UEFA Champions’ League group stage.
On the importance of having the Norwegian talent in Tenerife’s ranks, club president Sergio Batista said: “Despite her young age, she has shown her form and gained important experience, both in the Champions League and with her national team. “We are confident of her positive contribution to Tenerife from the first minute, in a position where the team is plagued by injuries.”
Tenerife are currently seventh in the Spanish Women’s League table, with 17 points.
