Victoria Margareta Sandell Svensson (born 18 May 1977) is a Swedish football manager and former player. Nicknamed Vickan,[3] she was team captain on the Swedish women's national team and Djurgårdens IF Dam, captaining the national team during the 2007 FIFA Women's World Cup, and is one of the most merited Swedish footballers of all time.[4][3] She was originally known as Victoria Svensson, and then Victoria Sandell Svensson after marrying Camilla Sandell in April 2008 and adding her surname to her own.[5]

Career[]

In 1998, and again in 2003, she won the Diamantbollen, an award given to the best female player in Sweden each year.[6][7] Also in 1998, 2001, and 2003 Sandell Svensson scored the most goals in the Damallsvenskan.

Sandell Svensson retired after Sweden's Euro 2009 quarter-final defeat to Norway. She had 166 caps and 68 goals.[2][1][8]

Sandell Svensson can be seen in the Sveriges Television documentary television series The Other Sport from 2013.

Victoria has been a sporting director for Djurgården, head coach for the Sweden women's F16 national team, and most recently in 2018–2020 coach for Tyresö FF[3]

On 6 May 2021 Victoria Sandell was presented as a new assistant coach for the women's national team. [4] She will assume office when the World Cup qualifiers starts in the autumn 2021. She was only contracted for 3 matches, but aims to stay longer if it works well.[9] Vickan will focus on individual training and performance analysis, particularly the offence.[9][3]
