Club career

Nilsson signed for Göteborg FC in 2009 from Byttorps IF. She found her path to the first team blocked, first by Hedvig Lindahl, and then by Kristin Hammarström. She spent part of the 2011 season on loan to Hovås Billdal IF, then signed for AIK ahead of the 2012 season.

In 2012, Nilsson was being evaluated by scouts from Turbine Potsdam and other foreign clubs. Her contract with AIK contained a relegation release clause. When AIK was relegated, Nilsson signed a one-year contract with Damallsvenskan newcomers Sunnanå SK. Nilsson played with Sunnanå SK during the 2013 and 2014 seasons and made a total of 37 league appearances.

For the 2015 season, Nilsson joined Djurgårdens IF.

International career

As a Swedish under-19 international, she took part as a reserve in the 2009 U-19 European Championship and the 2010 U-20 World Cup. She made a total of 15 appearances for the U19 team and three for the U17 team.

Despite being capped by Sweden up to under-23 level, Nilsson was also eligible to play for Serbia. In January 2013, she was considering an offer from the Serbs to attend their national team training camp ahead of the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup qualification tournament.
