Rahel Repkin (born 17 June 1998) is an Estonian association footballer who plays as a midfielder for Paide Linnanaiskond and the Estonia women's national team.[3]

Club career

Repkin began her senior career with Tartu JK Tammeka, where she established herself as a regular first-team player. Between 2015 and 2023, she made over 160 appearances for the club.[4]

In 2018, she also made appearances for FC Elva.[4]

In 2024, she signed for Austrian club FC Wacker Innsbruck, marking her first move abroad.[5] She spent the first half of the year with the club, featuring regularly in the Austrian top division, but was unable to help Wacker avoid relegation.[6] She later returned to Tammeka for the remainder of the season.

In February 2025, she signed for Swedish club IFK Värnamo, competing in the third tier of the Swedish league system, marking her second move abroad.[7] She joined the club on a one-year contract and was expected to play a regular role in the team.[8] Repkin described the move as an opportunity to continue her career abroad after an unsatisfactory spell in Austria, noting that the level and conditions in the Swedish third division were higher than those she had experienced at her previous club.[8] The club had finished third in its league the previous season and aimed for promotion.[7]

However, her time at IFK Värnamo was affected by limited playing opportunities, as her commitments to the Estonia national team created scheduling conflicts, which in turn also affected her involvement at international level.Later in 2025, she returned to Estonia and joined Paide Linnanaiskond.[9]

International career

Repkin has represented Estonia at youth international level, playing for the under-17 and under-19 teams.[10]

She made her senior debut for the Estonia women's national team on 23 October 2020 against the Netherlands, coming on as a substitute for Kristiina Tullus.[11]

As of May 2026, she has earned 22 caps for the national team.[10]
