Signe Gaupset is a Norwegian midfielder who plays for Tottenham Hotspur Women in the Women’s Super League.
She is also a Norway international, having made her senior debut in February 2024 and featuring at UEFA Women’s EURO 2025.
She started playing football at five, after joining in with her older brother’s training sessions.
She played on boys’ teams at SK Rival, and she has said that growing up with boys made the game faster and more physical for her from an early age.
She has said she didn’t even know women’s football existed when she was a kid.
She describes herself as “a tomboy” growing up — not much pink, and she’d bring a ball and boots to school every day.
She was inspired by Ada Hegerberg growing up. She met her as a child and got to play alongside her at Euro 2025.
Her childhood idols were also Zlatan Ibrahimović and Cristiano Ronaldo.
Her teammates call her “Sig.”
She’s a big taco fan, and she’s said Friday tacos are a tradition in her family.
She competed in cross-country skiing while she was coming through, alongside football.
She was voted both Toppserien “Player of the Year” and “Young Player of the Year” at the NISO Awards 2025.
As a young player, she was inspired by Ada Hegerberg. Years later, she started to play alongside her in the national team. At just 20, she won the Toppserien title with Brann, was named Player of the Season and earned a move to the Europe’s most competitive league. What else lies behind the story of Signe Gaupset?
Tottenham dismantled Aston Villa 7:3 on Sunday, 15 February. The scoring in the seven-goal thriller was opened by young Norwegian star Signe Gaupset, who netted her first goal in the WSL. She was not the only Norwegian to impress on the day.
After her impressive performance at Euro, it was only a matter of time before young Norwegian star Signe Gaupset would leave SK Brann for greener pastures.
