Pernille Mosegaard Harder (born 15 November 1992) is a Danish professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder or a forward for Frauen-Bundesliga club Bayern Munich and the Denmark national team. In September 2020, she became the world's most expensive female footballer following her transfer from VfL Wolfsburg to Chelsea,[1] but the record was broken in September 2022 by Keira Walsh when she was signed to Barcelona.[2] She is considered one of the best footballers in the world.[3][4]
Harder won the UEFA Women's Player of the Year Award in 2018 and 2020.[5]
Harder, like her partner Magdalena Eriksson, is also known for her LGBTQ+ advocacy in sport and beyond.[6][7]
