Guro Reiten (born 26 July 1994) is a Norwegian professional footballer who plays as a winger for English Women's Super League club Chelsea and the Norway national team. Before joining Chelsea in 2019, she played in Norway for Sunndal, Kattem, Trondheims-Ørn, and LSK Kvinner.

She made her debut for Norway in 2014 and appeared with the team at the UEFA European Championship 2017, 2019 FIFA World Cup, UEFA European Championship 2022, and 2023 FIFA World Cup.

Club career

Sunndal

Born in Sunndalsøra, Møre og Romsdal, Reiten grew up in the village of Nordmøre and began her senior career with her local side Sunndal, then in the second division of the Norwegian football.[2][3][4][5]

Kattem

At age 16, Reiten joined Toppserien side Kattem in 2011.[6] During her year-and-a-half spell with Kattem, she made 35 league appearances and scored 11 goals in her second season, becoming the club's 2012 top scorer.[7][4][5]

Trondheims-Ørn

After Kattem pulled out of the Toppserien, Reiten joined Trondheims-Ørn in 2013. During her four seasons with Trondheims, she made 82 league appearances and scored 25 goals. With Trondheims-Ørn, she has also reached the final of the 2014 Norwegian Women's Cup.[4][5][8]

LSK Kvinner

Reiten then transferred to Toppserien side LSK Kvinner for the 2017 season.[9] During her two-and-a-half seasons with the club, she made 53 league appearances, scoring 51 goals in the process. With LSK Kvinner, Reiten was a back-to-back Toppserien league winner in 2017, also winning the Toppserien's regular season golden boot in the same season.[10] Reiten and LSK Kvinner repeated both these feats in 2018, including winning the 2018 Norway Women's Cup.[4][11] Reiten also went on to win the 2018 Toppserien Player of the Year and Goal of the Year awards.[2][12] At her time of departing LSK Kvinner, Reiten was the Toppserien's leading top scorer for the 2019 season.[4][5][13]

Chelsea

On 31 May 2019, Reiten signed with the FA Women's Super League side Chelsea.[14] It was reported that the transfer fee was around £12,000.[15] In her first season with Chelsea, Reiten made 23 appearances and scored 7 goals across all competitions.[16] She featured less frequently for Chelsea in the 2020–21 season, scoring one league goal in nineteen appearances. In the same season, she scored in the 2021 FA Women's League Cup final against Bristol City as Chelsea retained the trophy.[16] Reiten's third season at Chelsea saw her play more often as a left wing-back.[16] In this campaign, Reiten scored eleven goals and earned a place in the PFA WSL Team of the Year.[17]

International career

Youth career

Reiten has represented Norway at all youth international levels from under-15 to under-23.[18] As a 13-year-old, she was already selected for the under-15 national team to play a match in Kristiansund.[19] In April 2010, Reiten represented the under-17 team at the 2010 UEFA Women's Under-17 Championship in Switzerland, where Norway were eliminated in the second qualifying round, finishing second in their group behind Germany.[20]

She made her under-19 debut on 30 May 2011 in the opening game of the 2011 UEFA Women's Under-19 Championship against Germany, which her team lost 3–1.[18] Reiten made four appearances at the tournament and scored one goal,[4] against Spain in the group stage.[4] Norway eventually reached the final where they lost 8–1 to Germany and finished the tournament as silver medalists.[21] The semi-final finish qualified Norway for the 2012 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup in Japan, where the team was once again defeated by Germany, this time in the quarter-finals, with Reiten appearing in three of Norway's four games at the tournament, including a 4–1 group stage victory over Argentina where she played full 90 minutes.[4][18]

After a successful qualifying campaign for the 2013 UEFA Women's Under-19 Championship, in which Reiten scored three goals in six matches and was the team's joint top scorer,[4][22] she led Norway at the main tournament in Wales as team captain.[23] The team failed to qualify for the knockout stages after finishing third in Group B, behind Germany and Finland, with three points from three matches, winning the only game of the tournament against Sweden 5–0.[24] Reiten played in all three matches.[4]

Between 2013 and 2016, Reiten made 14 appearances for the under-23 team, but did not feature in any UEFA or FIFA tournaments.[18]

Senior career

On 14 January 2014, Reiten made her senior team debut in a friendly tournament in La Manga against Spain, coming on as a 63rd-minute substitute for Elise Thorsnes in an eventual 2–1 victory.[25][26] Three days later, she was included in the starting lineup for the first time, in a 1–1 draw with England, where she played the full 90 minutes.[27] On 13 February, Reiten played her first competitive match against Greece in a 2015 World Cup qualifiers, where she again played the full 90 minutes,[28] before representing Norway at the 2014 Algarve Cup a month later.[29]

After two appearances in the last two World Cup qualifying matches in September 2014, through which Norway qualified for the 2015 World Cup,[30][31] Reiten had to wait more than two years for her next appearance, and in the meantime she played for the under-23 national team.[18] She returned to the Norwegian squad in March 2017 for the 2017 Algarve Cup and made three appearances at the tournament.[18][32] Reiten also managed to score her first senior goal in the process, against tournament hosts Portugal, scoring her team's second goal in a 2–0 win only three minutes after being substituted in.[33]

Reiten represented Norway at UEFA Women's Euro 2017,[34][35] where she came on as a substitute in the opening game against the Netherlands.[36] She also played in the last group match against Denmark,[37] however, she was unable to prevent her team from being eliminated without a single point or goal for the first time in a major tournament.[38] After an unsuccessful European Championship campaign, Norway played qualifiers for the 2019 World Cup. Reiten played in all eight matches and scored four goals, including a brace against Northern Ireland in the opening game,[39] as Norway qualified for the World Cup finals with a first-place finish and seven wins from eight games.[40]

Reiten had her first tournament success in 2019 by winning the Algarve Cup.[41][42] On 2 May, she was included in the squad for the 2019 World Cup, her first World Cup.[43][44] At the World Cup, she played in all five of Norway's matches.[45] In the opening game against Nigeria, she scored the first goal of the tournament for Norway[46] and was named the best player on the pitch for her goal and assist.[47][48] A 3–0 defeat to England in the quarter-finals saw her and her team eliminated, also missing out on the 2020 Summer Olympics.[49]

In the Euro 2022 qualifiers, Reiten featured in all six of Norway's matches and scored four goals, including the 1–0 winner against Wales.[50][51] In the 2023 World Cup qualifiers that followed, she also played in all ten games and netted two goals.[52]

In June 2022, Reiten was called-up to the Norwegian national team for the 2022 European Championship finals.[53] She appeared in three group matches, starting with a 4–1 win against Euro newcomers Northern Ireland, in which she scored Norway's last goal in a 4–1 win.[54][55] They then suffered the heaviest defeat in their international history against England, 8–0.[56] Third in their group, they failed to qualify for the knockout stage at the second consecutive European Championship after losing 1–0 to Austria in the last game.[57]

On 19 June 2023, she was included in the 23-player Norwegian squad for the 2023 World Cup.[58] She appeared in all four of Norway's matches at the tournament in an eventual round of 16 exit, and also scored two goals.[59]

Personal life

Following the 2022 Oslo shooting, Reiten publicly came out as a lesbian in an interview with the Norwegian newspaper Verdens Gang.[60]
