Liverpool are reportedly closing in on a new signing from Sweden as they look to strengthen their squad. The Premier League continues to be one of the most competitive leagues in women’s football, with every point crucial as clubs fight to climb the table. For Liverpool, who have struggled this season and currently sit at the bottom, adding fresh talent is a key step toward improving their campaign. The Swedish league has become a breeding ground for promising talent. Clubs like BK Hacken have consistently developed players who can make an impact on the European stage. With several teams showing interest, it’s no surprise that Liverpool are moving quickly to secure their target. The timing of the deal is critical, as the Reds need reinforcements to lift their league position and inject energy into their attacking options.
Now, the details are emerging. 22-year-old BK Hacken winger, Alice Bergström, is set to join Liverpool. She played a central role in Häcken’s historic Swedish Championship win and has been called up to the Swedish national team, featuring in the bronze medal match of the Nations League. She has also represented Djurgården in the Swedish women’s league, showcasing her consistency at the top level of Swedish football.
Sportbladet reports that “Alice Bergström is only details from Liverpool – where all parties must agree.” If finalized, the move is expected to be made official soon, barring any unforeseen developments. Bergström’s arrival comes as Liverpool aim to supplement the efforts of Swedish players Beata Olsson and Cornelia Kapocs, who have struggled this season as the team battles at the lower end of the table. For Liverpool, adding Bergström is not just about numbers. It’s about bringing in a player with experience in winning titles and performing on an international stage. Her pace, skill, and goal threat could provide the Reds with the edge they need to climb the standings. With all parties reportedly close to agreement, Liverpool fans may soon have a new Swedish star to cheer for.
