This is not the first time that Saudi football has tried to sign her. Previously, Hedvig Lindahl, with 189 senior caps for Sweden, turned down the opportunity to become a goalkeeping coach in the country.

The offer that came last fall, however, was to put the goalkeeper gloves back on, even though she had ended her career a year earlier.

It would pay so well. They would build the worst city of the future. I can honestly say that I started considering it. What would happen if I went? Lindahl tells Dagens ETC.

She chose to decline, for the same reason as last time: Saudi Arabia's lack of human rights.
