Zećira Mušović (born 26 May 1996) is a Swedish professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Women's Super League club Chelsea and the Sweden national team.
They settled in the province of Scania, where Mušović joined the youth system of Stattena IF, a football club in the city of Helsingborg.
Malmö rebranded as FC Rosengård for the 2014 Damallsvenskan and Mušović was elevated to first team contention when Helgadóttir left the club during the mid-season break.
When Mušović secured increasing first team participation in the 2015 Damallsvenskan, the club announced they were pleased with her development and awarded a new 2.5-year contract in May 2015.
In the event McLeod suffered an anterior cruciate ligament injury, so the club had to bring in veteran Sofia Lundgren as cover.
[10] After some long conversations with Rosengård director of football Therese Sjögran, Mušović agreed to remain at the club although she was unhappy at losing her place in the team once McLeod recovered from her injured knee.
[11] Despite having lost her position as first choice at club level, Mušović was called up by incoming Sweden national team coach Peter Gerhardsson for the opening 2019 FIFA World Cup qualifiers.
[4] She attended several matches as a non-playing substitute, then won her first senior cap in March 2018, securing a debut clean sheet in a 3–0 win over Russia at the 2018 Algarve Cup.
[20] She did not play during the World Cup, and continued in her early years with the national team to struggle to earn starts, in particular during major tournaments.
[24] She did not take the pitch during the tournament, but drew notice as one of the players to publicly criticize the initial scheduling of the final, which resulted in its being moved to accommodate high temperatures in Tokyo at the time.
[30] A loss to Spain in the semi-final sent them to the third-place match, where Mušović kept a clean sheet in a 2–0 victory over hosts Australia, securing her second World Cup bronze.
She has firm political views and challenged two of her social media contacts over their support for the controversial Sweden Democrats party at the 2018 Swedish general election.
