theglobalsun – Manchester United have signed Sweden winger Monica Jusu Bah from BK Hacken for just under £400,000. The 23-year-old has agreed to a four-year contract with the Women’s Super League club.
Jusu Bah becomes United’s third signing ahead of Thursday’s Women’s Super League transfer deadline. The club are also expected to remain active before the window closes.
United reportedly faced competition for the winger’s signature during negotiations with BK Hacken. Jusu Bah was under contract with the Swedish club until 2028.
The transfer brings an experienced young international to Manchester United. Jusu Bah has spent her entire club career in Sweden before making the move to England.
She began her career with Umea before joining BK Hacken in 2023. Her time at Hacken included a major achievement earlier this year.
In May, Jusu Bah helped BK Hacken win the inaugural Women’s Europa Cup. The success added a European trophy to her developing club career.
Jusu Bah has also established herself with the Sweden national team. She has made 11 senior international appearances since breaking into the squad.
The winger played in all six of Sweden’s Women’s World Cup qualifying matches this year. Her international involvement has given her additional experience at senior level.
Jusu Bah expressed her excitement after completing the move to Manchester United. She also highlighted the positive atmosphere she has already experienced within the squad.
“It’s an unbelievable feeling to join Manchester United,” Jusu Bah said. She believes there is strong unity within the team ahead of the new season.
“There is a real togetherness in the group,” she added. The winger also spoke about the excitement surrounding the campaign ahead.
Jusu Bah Becomes Manchester United’s Third Signing Before WSL Deadline
The winger becomes United’s third signing during the current transfer window. Her arrival follows additions made earlier in the summer.
United have signed defender Andrea Medina from Atletico Madrid. The club have also recruited goalkeeper Janina Leitzig from Leicester City.
Jusu Bah now adds another attacking option to United’s squad. Her arrival provides further depth ahead of the Women’s Super League campaign.
United are reportedly hoping to complete at least one more signing before next week’s deadline. The club therefore could remain active in the final stages of the transfer window.
Jusu Bah’s four-year contract demonstrates United’s commitment to the player. The agreement also gives her time to adapt to English football and continue developing.
Her move represents the first time she will play club football outside Sweden. She arrives with experience from domestic competition, European football, and international duty.
Her success with BK Hacken provides a strong platform for the next stage of her career. Winning the inaugural Women’s Europa Cup also gave her experience competing for silverware.
Her international record is another important part of her profile. Eleven senior appearances for Sweden have helped her gain experience against high-level opposition.
Playing all six World Cup qualifying matches this year further underlines her international importance. She will now attempt to establish a similar role at Manchester United.
Jusu Bah said she is ready to challenge herself after moving to England. She also wants to contribute directly to United’s ambitions.
“I’m ready to keep pushing myself,” she said. The winger added that she wants to help her new teammates achieve their shared goals.
She also expressed a desire to create special memories at Manchester United. The comments underline her enthusiasm about beginning a new chapter with the club.
United will hope her experience and attacking qualities strengthen the squad. The club can also benefit from her relatively young age and potential for further development.
Her arrival comes shortly before the Women’s Super League transfer deadline. United now have limited time to complete any additional recruitment plans.
