Manchester United have confirmed the signing of highly-rated Sweden international Anna Sandberg on three-year deal, with the option of a further year.
The defender joins the Reds from BK Hacken, where she had been playing since July 2022, gaining Champions League experience with the Damallsvenskan side. On the international stage, Sandberg was part of the Sweden squad that finished third at the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup.
She joins for what will be a record transfer fee for a Swedish women’s player, surpassing the £150,000 Everton paid to Rosengard for Hanna Bennison in 2021. The 21-year-old full-back is United’s fourth signing of the summer, following the arrivals of Dominique Janssen, Elisabeth Terland and Melvine Malard.
