Norway U23 international signs until 2029 after making history in Norway
Paris Saint-Germain have announced the signing of Norway U23 international midfielder Emilie Østerås from AIK Fotboll Dam.
The 24-year-old has signed a contract with PSG until 30 June 2029, becoming the latest addition to the French club’s midfield.
Østerås arrives with significant experience despite her relatively young age, having already played senior football in Norway since she was 15.
A Teenage History-Maker
Østerås began her footballing journey with Vålerenga, where she made her debut in the Norwegian top flight at just 15 years old.
Her emergence was remarkable.
In 2017, she became the youngest goalscorer in Toppserien history, finding the net at just 15 years and 184 days old.
That early breakthrough demonstrated the potential Østerås possessed from a very young age.
Building Her Career in Norway
Following her time with Vålerenga, Østerås continued her development with Kolbotn and Stabæk.
It was at Stabæk where she became recognised as one of the more consistent midfielders in the Norwegian league.
Her ability to operate in several different midfield roles has been an important part of her development.
That versatility will now be tested at a much higher level with PSG.
Move to AIK
At the beginning of 2026, Østerås moved to Sweden to join AIK Fotboll Dam.
Her time in Sweden provided another experience of playing outside Norway before PSG made their move.
The transfer to Paris now represents another significant step in her career.
Norway U23 International
Østerås has represented Norway throughout the youth categories.
She gradually established herself with the Norway U23 national team, where she has already made around a dozen appearances.
Her progression through the national-team pathway has continued alongside her club career, and the move to PSG gives her another opportunity to develop at an elite European club.
Versatility in Midfield
One of Østerås’ most interesting qualities is her versatility.
She is capable of operating in multiple midfield roles, giving PSG another flexible option in the centre of the pitch.
Her experience playing in different positions could prove particularly useful as she adapts to the demands of French football and PSG’s tactical system.
Østerås Excited for PSG Challenge
The Norwegian midfielder is delighted to have completed the move.
“I am very happy to join Paris Saint-Germain. I can’t wait to discover my new teammates, work with the staff and give everything to help the team achieve its objectives.”
The 2029 contract gives her a long-term opportunity to establish herself at the club.
