Fridolina Rolfö trains according to plan – but some play already in the European Championship premiere against Denmark on Friday is unlikely to happen. We're going according to the plan that we talked about two days ago. The positive thing is that we haven't had any setbacks. So it looks good, says the national football team's doctor Houman Ebrahimi.

Ebrahimi met the media in Swiss Cham on Tuesday morning and had no direct news that changed the chances of playing for Rolfö already in the premiere in Geneva.

If we were to play with probability, it's not a high probability, he says.

The national team doctor does not want to say that play for Rolfö is impossible so soon, but he also says:

I think it's very difficult. We always weigh the risks and I think the risk is high.

The Barcelona star has, however, been able to increase her training in recent days.

She has been able to take her first more high-intensity running steps. It's under controlled forms right now. But the messages have been positive.

Rolfö injured her left foot in the Nations League match against Denmark about a month ago and has not played football since then.

Notably, meanwhile, is that center-back Magdalena Eriksson has been absent from parts of the last training sessions, due to an overload after last week's rehearsal against Norway.

Eriksson is expected to train fully again on Wednesday. On Tuesday, the blue and yellow European Championship squad had a day off.
