- Published
Sorensen came on as a substitute in Denmark's 1-0 defeat by England at the Women's World Cup after starting in their opening win over China.
Denmark forward Nicoline Sorensen has signed a one-year contract extension with Everton.
The 25-year-old joined the Toffees from Brondby in 2020 and played in 15 Women's Super League matches last season, scoring twice.
She has featured in both of Denmark's opening World Cup games, starting in their 1-0 win against China.
"I'm so happy to continue my journey with this amazing club," said Sorensen of her new Everton deal.
Sorensen sustained a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury in September 2021 and spent 14 months on the sidelines, before making her return last season.
Now contracted through to June 2024, she said: "The past eight months have been fantastic, to be back on the pitch enjoying my football is an amazing feeling.
"Every member of staff at Everton had been so supportive during my injury rehab and I hope I can repay that support in the season ahead.
"My full focus for now is with Denmark and going as far as we can in the World Cup, but I can't wait to pull on the royal blue jersey once again later this year."
Everton boss and fellow Dane Brian Sorensen added: "I was really impressed with the way she conducted herself last season.
"To begin the season on the sidelines and then perform to the level she has over the past eight months is testament to the player and person she is."
