Camilla Küver’s grin is so broad and appears so often it could almost be her trademark – and the 20-year-old has had plenty to smile about of late. In this interview, the defender talks about her comeback from injury and upcoming opponents 1. FC Köln.
Camilla Küver, it’s been almost two weeks now since you made your comeback. How emotional and special was that moment for you?
Camilla Küver: “It’s still difficult to put into words. The girls made it easy for me. I felt huge relief after the final whistle because it meant I’d put that difficult period and the injury behind me. The fact that my comeback was also simultaneously my debut for VfL Wolfsburg made the moment even more special.”
When players suffer a serious injury, they are often asked about a Plan B. What was yours?
Camilla: “At the moment I only have a Plan A – and nothing can throw me off course. Not even an injury. I’m living my dream right now. Since finishing school last year I’ve been 100 percent focused on football, but I’ve started to realise that I need something to balance it out. That’s why I’m starting a sports management degree soon.”
