Everton’s Danish international Sara Holmgaard will join Real Madrid on expiry of her Toffees’ contract at the end of the month.
The left-back made 19 appearances in the WSL last term, scoring three goals and registering four assists.
She had joined Everton in August 2022, spending the first half of the season on loan before making her debut in January 2023.
Everton Head coach Brian Sorensen told evertonfc.com: “Sara has been a top professional since she arrived at the club and has shone on and off the pitch this season. She has enjoyed an impressive year at left-back, whilst supporting her twin Karen through a tough time on the sidelines with injury.
Holmgaard has signed a two-year deal with Real Madrid, who were runners-up to Barcelona in Spain’s Liga F last season.
