GOTHENBURG, Sweden<\/span>, June 25, 2026<\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ —\u00a0As the year’s most important tournament approaches, SKF is launching a new collection of match kits designed by players from Sweden’s national football team, Monica Jusu Bah and Felicia Schr\u00f6der.

“The idea for the design comes from a personal story. We got tattoos together as a symbol of our friendship, and we thought this would make a great football shirt for the young players representing SKF and Meet the world in Gothia Cup,” says Monica Jusu Bah, professional football player in BK H\u00e4cken and the Swedish national team.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Being close not only in age but also in mindset to the\u00a0younger\u00a0players, they embody what\u00a0the\u00a0Meet the World-tournament\u00a0is\u00a0all about:\u00a0football and friendship\u00a0becoming\u00a0reality.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“The sun and the moon represent our differences but also what brings us together as friends and football players, it is great to share this with other football lovers from around the world,” says Felicia\u00a0Schr\u00f6der, professional football player and former BK\u00a0H\u00e4cken player, as well as the Swedish national team.<\/p>\n

Last year SKF teamed up with world renowned football player Ze\u0107ira Mu\u0161ovi\u0107, Swedish national team goalie,\u202fwho returned from Chelsea FC, and signed by Malm\u00f6 FF in 2025.
