100: Lena Goessling

Sneaking into the top 100 this year, the experienced Goessling showed she can still play a key role for one of the top club teams in the world. Goessling was not always a regular as Wolfsburg closed out the domestic double in 2017-18 but she started several big games, including the German Cup final against Bayern Munich. She has continued to feature regularly for Germany as they prepare for the World Cup, but sadly an injury has ended her year earlier than planned.

Stephan Lerch, VfL Wolfsburg manager:

“Lena has many years of experience and can score us points simply through her positional play. She has a good anticipation of both the ball and the game and also a strong passing game herself.”
