Malin Johnsen Brenn (born March 13, 1999) is a Norwegian footballer from Jessheim who plays for Linköpings FC and the Norway national team.
Brenn played age-specific football for Ullensaker/Kisa before going to LSK Kvinner in 2014.[1] She debuted in the Toppserien in April 2016 in the home game against Røa.[2] The following year, she established herself as a regular in the starting eleven at LSK. In June 2018, she tore her cruciate ligament in a U19 international match,[3] thus she was out of action for almost a year.[4] Also in the 2020 season, she was out for a period due to a knee injury.[5]
In June 2022, it became known that Malin Brenn, together with Camilla Linberg, had finished in LSK Kvinner.[6] Romerikes Blad claimed that there was complete discord within the club and that the players left the club after a persistent conflict that had escalated recently.[7]
In August 2022, it was announced that she had signed for Italian club Como in Serie A.[8]
Brenn has international matches for U15, U16, U17, U19, U23, and the senior national team for Norway. She made her debut for the senior team against Uruguay on 15 February 2023.[9]
