[2] She is considered one of the best footballers in the world. [3] [4]

Early career

Harder played for Team Viborg and IK Skovbakken in her native Denmark's Elitedivisionen. [8] Skovbakken had made Harder and her contemporary Sofie Junge Pedersen contracted players in April 2010, in recognition of their exceptional potential. [9]

Linköpings FC

Harder chose Swedish club Linköpings FC for her next destination because she wanted a new challenge, but also because she wanted to remain in Scandinavia. In September 2013 she scored all four goals in Linköpings' 4–1 win at relegation-bound Sunnanå SK. [10]

In the 2015 Damallsvenskan season, Harder scored 17 goals in 22 appearances for Linköping, winning a series of national awards including Årets Anfallare (English: Forward of the Year) and Årets Allsvenska Spelare (English: League Player of the Year). At the annual awards gala, she shared the stage with male winner Zlatan Ibrahimović and was described as "hyper-talented" and "world-class" by Swedish national coach Pia Sundhage. [11] [12] Harder was also voted Danish Football Player of the Year in 2015. [13] In June 2016, Harder was among 30 local worthies to be named in a Wall of Fame by Linköping Municipality. [14]

Harder enjoyed further success in the 2016 Damallsvenskan season, retaining the League Player of the Year award. Her 23 league goals secured the Top Goalscorer award and helped Linköping win the Damallsvenskan title. [15] By now a transfer target for the biggest clubs in women's football, Harder's agent announced in November 2016 that she would be leaving Linköping for a new challenge. [16]

VfL Wolfsburg

In December 2016, it was announced that Harder had signed a two-and-a-half-year contract with VfL Wolfsburg running from January 2017. In all four seasons with the team, Harder won the Bundesliga and German Cup double. She was top scorer in the league twice: in the 2017–18 season with 17 goals scored, and in the 2019–20 season with 27 goals. Thanks to these performances, she won the UEFA Women's Player of the Year Award twice for the 2017-18 [17] and 2019-20 [18] seasons. She also played in two Champions League finals (2018 and 2020), losing both to Lyon. [19] In 2020, she was elected best forward of the Champions League [20] and best player of the German Championship. [21]

Chelsea

On 1 September 2020, Harder signed for Chelsea on a three-year contract for a world-record fee for a female footballer, reportedly in excess of £250,000. [22] In the 2020–21 Champions League quarter-finals, she scored in both legs against her former club VfL Wolfsburg. [23] In the group stage of the 2022–23 Champions League she scored a hattrick against KF Vllaznia Shkodër. On the 18th November 2022 she suffered a serious thigh injury on national team duty against Austria that required surgery and sidelining her for five months. She made her comeback against Barcelona in the Champions League semi-final on April 22, 2023. In the FA Cup final against Manchester United she gave the assist for the victory goal for Sam Kerr in front of a record crowd of 77,390 people.

Bayern Munich

On 1 June 2023, it was announced that Harder, along with partner and former Chelsea teammate Magdalena Eriksson, had signed for Bayern Munich on a three-year deal. [24] She made her debut for Bayern against SC Freiburg and scored her first goal against 1. FC Köln. In the next game agsinst SGS Essen, she scored her second goal, but collided with the goalkeeper and was subbed out with a knee injury after 17 minutes. With a medial collateral ligament injury she was out for over two month and made her comeback in December 2023 against 1. FC Nürnberg. [25]

International career

At the inaugural 2008 U-17 World Cup in New Zealand, Harder was part of the Denmark team who won their group before losing 4–0 to eventual champions North Korea in the quarter-final. [26] Still 16 years old, she contributed a hat-trick to a crushing 15–0 win over Georgia in her senior international debut in October 2009, and she has continued to score regularly for the Danish team ever since. [27]

Harder scored further hat-tricks against Austria and Armenia in 2011 and Russia in 2013. [28] She was named in national coach Kenneth Heiner-Møller's Denmark squad for Euro 2013. [29] With nine goals she had been the team's top goalscorer in qualifying. [30]

She played in the Algarve Cup in 2011, 2012, 2013, and 2015, but had an injury in 2014. In October 2013, Harder won her 50th cap for Denmark in a 1–1 draw with Serbia. She scored Denmark's goal in the match. [31] In March 2016, Harder was appointed captain of the national team. [32]

In 2017, she was named in national coach Nils Nielsen's Denmark squad for the Euro 2017. She captained the team to the final and scored a goal in Denmark's 4–2 defeat by hosts the Netherlands. She was voted runner-up to Lieke Martens in the UEFA Women's Player of the Year Award for 2016–17. [33] On 16 September 2021, she broke Merete Pedersen's 12.5-year-long national record, becoming the record goalscorer of the Denmark national team, with her 66 goal in her 129 games. [34] In the successful qualifying for the Euro 2022 she was used in all ten games and scored eight goals. She was called up for the Euro 2022 and scored the only goal for Denmark, but was eliminated with the national team in the group stage.

In qualifying for the 2023 World Cup, she was used four times and scored two goals.

In July she was nominated for the 2023 FIFA World Cup. [35] She scored one goal and gave one assist, but was knocked out with Denmark after the round of 16 by Australia. It was the first time since 1995, that Denmark reached a knockout stage at a World Cup.

Personal life

Since May 2014, Harder has been in a relationship with current Bayern Munich teammate and Swedish international, Magdalena Eriksson. [33] [36] [37] On the 21 July 2024 they announced their engagement after over a decade together. [38]

She and Eriksson work with the charity Common Goal and pledged 1% of their salaries to help tackle social issues throughout football. The couple also advocate for equality and LGBTQ+ rights in sport. [7]
