Olivia Alma Charlotta Schough (pronounced [ˈskuːɡ]; born 11 March 1991) is a Swedish footballer who plays as a midfielder for Damallsvenskan club FC Rosengård and the Sweden women's national team.

Club career[edit]

Schough played for Kopparbergs/Göteborg FC from 2009 to 2013. During that span she won the Svenska Cupen in 2011 and 2012 and the Svenska Supercupen in 2013. She also appeared in the UEFA Women's Champions League in 2011–12 and 2012–13 with Göteborg.[4] In 2013, Göteborg reached the Quarter-finals of the Champions League but were eliminated by Juvisy.

In December 2013 Schough announced her transfer from Göteborg to Bayern Munich.[5] She left Bayern in the summer of 2014 and played for the Russian team WFC Rossiyanka in the fall. In November 2014 she returned to Sweden and signed with Eskilstuna United.[6] In 2015, Eskilstuna finished second in the Damallsvenskan and secured their spot in the Champions League. They defeated Glasgow City in the Round of 32, but were knocked out by Wolfsburg in the Round of 16.

On 5 January 2018, it was announced that Schough was returning to Kopparbergs/Göteborg FC where she had previously played for five years.[7]

After the 2018 season Schough and Göteborg were unable to come to an agreement on a contract extension. Schough then signed with Djurgårdens for the 2019 Damallsvenskan season.[8]

International career[edit]

As an under-19 international she played the 2009 U-19 European Championship, where Sweden won a silver,[9] and the 2010 U-20 World Cup.[10]

Schough was called into the senior national team by coach Pia Sundhage for the 2013 Algarve Cup. She made her debut at the tournament in a 1–1 draw with China. Sundhage also selected Schough for UEFA Women's Euro 2013, which Sweden hosted.[11]

In May 2015, Schough and Eskilstuna teammates Malin Diaz and Sara Thunebro were named in Sundhage's Sweden squad for the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup in Canada.[12]

Schough was named to Sweden's roster for the 2016 Summer Olympics, she appeared in all six games for Sweden, winning the silver medal.[13]

In June 2017, Schough was named in Sweden's squad for the UEFA Women's Euro 2017. She played in three matches for Sweden, who were eliminated by the Netherlands in the Quarterfinals.[14]

On 13 June 2023, she was included in the 23-player squad for the FIFA Women's World Cup 2023.[15]
