The Spanish international Marta Mangue Gonzalez has signed a contract with the TOMS league team Team Esbjerg, the 24 year old Spaniard who has played 111 National team matches, and is coming from the spanish champions, Cementos La Union Ribarroja, has been an interesting subject for many of the top clubs in the Danish league, but in the end it ended up being Esbjerg who got her signature and that makes the board chairman in Team Esbjerg, Bjarne Pedersen very happy “This signing will help us preventing the play off’s for the fist division, and as I see it she will not only be a huge profit for Team Esbjerg, but for the hole Danish league. Marta’s handball qualities are so great that she in my eyes will participate in raising the level of the Danish league, and plus all of that she will be a real spectator magnet”
