Maja Bodin (born 15 September 2001) is a Swedish professional footballer who plays as a forward for Damallsvenskan club BK Häcken.
Club career
[edit]Bodin grew up in Karlskrona and began playing football at age eight.[1] She joined Kristianstad from Division 2 club Nättraby GoIF in August 2017.[2] She made her Damallsvenskan debut at age 15 on 3 September 2017, coming on as a 65th-minute substitute for Tine Schryvers in a 2–1 loss to Piteå.[2]
On 27 March 2019, Kristianstad registered several players including Bodin on a part-time loan with Elitettan club Asarum.[3] On 19 May 2019, at age 17, she scored her first Damallsvenskan goal as Kristianstad won 3–0 against Eskilstuna United.[4] After six seasons at the club, she became a free agent at the end of 2022.[5]
On 16 December 2022, Bodin signed a two-year contract with KIF Örebro.[6] She debuted for the club on 25 February 2023, scoring against BK Häcken in a 3–1 loss in the Swedish Women's Cup.[7]
On 20 December 2024, following KIF Örebro's relegation, Bodin signed a two-year contract with Växjö.[8]
On 11 August 2026, Bodin was sold to league rivals BK Häcken.[9] She had also gained transfer interest from clubs including Arsenal, Djurgården, and West Ham United,[10] but chose to join the reigning Swedish champions as a potential replacement for Felicia Schröder, taking over her number 9 shirt.[11] She debuted for the club four days later, scoring a hat trick in a 6–0 win over Brommapojkarna.[12]
