Norway Women's Euros Squad 2025 is coming together and the team will be bidding for a marked improvement on their last European Championship outing.
The team crashed out in the group stage of the last edition with their worst result coming in an 8-0 loss to England. Their performances at the 2023 World Cup saw better form but not at the heights fans would expect with the likes of Ada Hegerberg and Carolina Graham Hansen in their ranks.
Hegerberg has been appointed the new captain, taking over from Maren Mjelde who had held the responsibility for a decade. Hegerberg is an icon in the sport but has a big task on getting results with Norway, especially at this summer's tournament.

Norway manager: Gemma Grainger
The Norway manager was appointed in January 2024 and she left her role as Wales head coach to take up the job.
Grainger steered the team to Euros qualification and the team have been much more consistent under their new boss.
The manager has a long history in women's football management. She has managed Leeds United, Middlesborough and England U17 before taking up the Wales job and now the role with Norway.
Can Grainger steer Norway to Euros silverware? It is not out of the question.
Norway's star player
Caroline Graham Hansen
The Norwegian team is packed full of stars and so it was tricky to narrow it down to one star player, especially with the likes of Hegerberg in their ranks. But Caroline Graham Hansen is one of the best players in the world.
Her consistent performances for Barcelona have steered them to multiple trophies and her goal-scoring record for the club is eye-watering. Graham Hansen, who is number four in FourFourTwo's list of best current players, played 40 games for the Spanish giants in the 2023/24 season and scored 32 goals.
In the last few years she hasn't quite reached those heights in a Norway shirt but that has followed the entire team's shaky form. If Norway find a way to consistently get her on the ball she will produce something magic. It is just inevitable with a player of her level.
