Nataša Andonova (born December 4, 1993) is a professional footballer from North Macedonia. She plays as a forward for the Spanish club Madrid CFF. Nataša also captains the North Macedonia women's national team.

She is the younger sister of Sijce Andonova, who is also a footballer. Nataša is known for being the top goal scorer in the history of the Macedonian national team.

Nataša Andonova's Football Journey

Nataša Andonova started her football career in Macedonia with a club called ZFK Tikvešanka. She first gained international attention during the 2010 Under-19 Euro tournament. This competition was held in North Macedonia.

Even though her team was not the strongest, Nataša was named the best player of the tournament. By this time, she had already played for the senior Macedonia national team.

Early Club Career and European Success

In the summer of 2010, Andonova moved to ZFK Borec. She played in the early stages of the 2010–11 Champions League with them. Later that year, she signed with Turbine Potsdam, a German club.

Turbine Potsdam was a very strong team, having won the European Champions League the season before. Nataša joined the team along with her sister, Sijce. She quickly moved up to the main team in February 2011.

Nataša played her first Bundesliga (German league) match that same month. She scored her first goal for Turbine Potsdam in a semi-final match. This was in the DFB-Pokal (German Cup) against Bayern Munich. Nataša was also the second-highest scorer in the 2011 Bundesliga Cup, with 7 goals.

Moving to Sweden and France

In May 2015, Nataša Andonova left Turbine Potsdam. She joined FC Rosengård, the champions of the Swedish league, Damallsvenskan. Rosengård needed a new forward after their player Anja Mittag moved to Paris Saint-Germain.

On January 31, 2017, Nataša herself joined Paris Saint-Germain (PSG). She signed a contract to play for them until June 2017. At PSG, Nataša wore the number 15 jersey.

Playing in Spain and Saudi Arabia

After her contract with PSG ended, Nataša joined Barcelona in June 2017. She wore the number 21 shirt for Barcelona. After playing for two seasons with the famous Spanish club, Nataša left Barcelona.

She then moved to another Spanish club, Levante UD. Nataša quickly became a key player for Levante. In 2022, she signed a new two-year contract with the club. She played in 122 games for Levante and scored 22 goals.

After her time at Levante, Andonova transferred to Al-Shabab FC in Saudi Arabia. This made her the first player from North Macedonia to play in the Saudi Women's League. As of July 2025, she plays for Madrid CFF.
