Super Falcons forward, Perpetua Nkwocha, has signed a contract with Swedish second division side, Clemensnas IF, as a player-coach.
The 38-year-old forward left Swedish Ladies side, Sunnana SK, where she had been playing since 2007, in January to join to the lower league side after her contract with them expired at the end of the 2014 season.
The club announced on their website on Monday, "Clemensnäs IF welcomes Perpetua Nkwocha, "Peppe" as coach of the ladies DIV2.
"We are very pleased and proud that Peppe wants to start as player-coach of our association. We look forward to the coming season."
Nkwocha, who was recently given the Swedish citizenship, was part of the Falcons team to the 2014 African Women's Championship in Namibia where the four-time African Woman Player of the Year led the team to win their seventh title.
She has made 32 appearances for Nigeria scoring nine goals.
