Sofie Bruun Bredgaard (born 18 January 2002) is a Danish football forward who plays for FC Rosengård of Sweden's Damallsvenskan. In April 2022 she won her first cap for the senior Denmark national team.

Club career

Bredgaard joined B 93 from BSF in 2017. The following year she scored for B 93 on her Kvindeligaen debut, in a 2–2 draw with Odense Q at Østerbro Stadium.[1] In October 2017 she had spent a period training with Manchester City.[2]

In July 2020 Bredgaard signed a two-and-a-half year contract with Swedish Damallsvenskan club Linköpings FC. She regretted leaving home before the completion of her education, but noted that the pay and conditions for female footballers were much better in Sweden than Denmark.[3] After playing in Linköpings' first match of the 2022 Damallsvenskan season, Bredgaard signed for FC Rosengård on 31 March 2022, the final day of the transfer window.[4]

International career

Bredgaard won her first cap for the Denmark national team on 12 April 2022, in a 2–0 2023 FIFA World Cup qualification – UEFA Group E win over Azerbaijan at Viborg Stadium. She entered play as a 77th-minute substitute for Sofie Svava.
