Saudi Arabia reportedly called and tried to persuade former Swedish national team goalkeeper Hedvig Lindahl to make a comeback. The offer, which came last autumn, involved a tax-free monthly salary of 100,000 Swedish kronor, but Lindahl declined. According to reports, Lindahl, who is 42 years old, said she honestly began to consider it.
This is not the first time Saudi football has tried to recruit her; she previously turned down an offer to become a goalkeeper coach in the country. Lindahl reportedly chose to decline again due to Saudi Arabia's lack of human rights.
