Club career

edit

Molin progressed through the youth system at Wä IF, then made her debut for Kristianstads DFF in the 2009 season. She spent time on loan at Vittsjö GIK in the Söderettan and signed a new two-year contract with Kristianstads in December 2009.[1] In December 2012, after making 46 Damallsvenskan appearances for Kristianstads, Molin refused a new contract offer and transferred to AIK.[2][3]

In 2016 Molin fulfilled her ambition of playing overseas, when she joined Apollon of the Cypriot Women's First Division.[4] Two years later she moved on to the Italian Serie A with Verona.[5] After a short spell in the Norwegian Toppserien with Avaldsnes, Molin signed for Glasgow City in December 2020.[6]
