Another Atlanta Beat signing?
Yep...There really firing them out now.
Atlanta Beat General Manager Shawn McGee announced the signing of Denmark’s Johanna Rasmussen as the third international player to officially join the Atlanta Beat roster.
Rasmussen is a Danish forward who "is one the best left footed players in the game" according to Atlanta Beat Head Coach Gareth O’Sullivan. "She has excellent speed and is well respected in Europe."
"We look forward to Johanna contributing both goals and assists in the upcoming season," said the coach. She has appeared in the 2007 FIFA Women’s World Cup, in two UEFA U-19 Championships, and in a FIFA U-20 World Cup with the Denmark Women’s National Team.
As she now joins former Umeå IK (Sweden) teammates Ramona Bachmann (Switzerland) and Mami Yamaguchi (Japan), Rasmussen becomes the third Umeå player signed to the newest WPS franchise.
More to come? We can only hope. Don't we 2010 already!
