Signe and Mathilde Carstens join Celtic FC Women | OneFootball

Celtic are delighted to announce the double signing of twin sisters, Signe and Mathilde Carstens, who arrive as the latest addition to Elena Sadiku’s Celtic FC Women's squad.

Both Signe and Mathilde have put pen to paper on a two-year deal at Paradise, joining up with the Hoops ahead of the 2024/25 campaign.

Arriving from their homeland in Denmark, the 22-year-olds have made the move from Fortuna Hjørring.

Mathilde is known for her direct and technical skill in attacking areas, whilst Signe will add more options to the centre of the pitch for the Ghirls.

Having come through the academy at Fortuna Hjørring, both players arrive with experience on the domestic and international fronts.

Alongside playing for the first-team on a number of occasions domestically, they have also featured in the UEFA Women’s Champions League, including the Danish side’s last 16 tie against Barcelona in 2021.

Expressing her delight about the move, Elena Sadiku said: "I’m so happy that Mathilde and Signe chose to join Celtic.

"It truly shows that players abroad believe in our vision and what we want to achieve in the upcoming seasons.”

Speaking on their individual qualities, the Celtic Head Coach continued: “Signe is a great player with exceptional in-game understanding and technical ability on the ball, while Mathilde, with her outstanding dribbling ability, will enhance our game with both assists and goals."

There will be some familiar faces for the sisters upon their arrival at Celtic, with the duo having spent time working with Elena Sadiku during her time at Fortuna. They have also played alongside goalkeeper, Kelsey Daugherty.

More recently, both Signe and Mathilde also received call-ups for the Danish Under-23 squad in February, adding to their international experience at youth level.
