FC Rosengård has set its sights on becoming a European powerhouse, even as its first steps under new international ownership have proved more difficult than expected in the Damallsvenskan.

The Malmö club is undergoing what it describes as a total transformation with the backing of the international ownership group Crux. The ambition is not simply to strengthen the existing team, but to build a new organization from the ground up.

That process has begun with setbacks on the field. The opening phase in Sweden’s top women’s league has not unfolded as the club expected, creating an early test for a project that carries large ambitions.

Despite those difficulties, FC Rosengård says it feels stronger than ever. “This is a restart where we are building everything from the ground up. We are a startup,” board chair Jenny Damgaard said.
