The Wolfsburg keeper on her mental struggles, being ‘thrown out’ by Chelsea and why she is driven to give something back
Hedvig Lindahl could not have predicted where the request for her shirt in April 2018 would lead. Then at Chelsea, the goalkeeper was asked to donate her kit to a charity auction by the photographer Daniela Porcelli and two years later the pair are leading a small team of volunteers encouraging bids for 20 signed shirts for their #TogetherAgainstCorona campaign.
The project is hosted by The One Goal, the organisation founded after their meeting at Chelsea’s match against Arsenal at Boreham Wood and the venture will donate 80% of the money raised to the World Health Organization.
