Manchester United Target Sweden Winger Monica Jusu Bah

Manchester United are set to make a major attacking addition, having agreed terms to sign Sweden winger Monica Jusu Bah from BK Häcken.

The 23-year-old is expected to complete her move before next Thursday’s Women’s Super League transfer deadline, a late-window push that underlines United’s determination to reshape their squad before the season settles.

The deal will require a transfer fee. Jusu Bah signed an extension with Häcken in September 2025, tying her to the Swedish club until 2028, so United have had to negotiate with a strong hand on the other side of the table. The exact figure remains undisclosed, but the intent is clear: this is a long-term investment in a player entering her prime.

Jusu Bah has spent her entire career in Sweden, breaking through at Umeå before earning her move to Häcken in 2023. Her rise has been sharp. Her impact, immediate.

In May, she helped BK Häcken lift the inaugural Women’s Europa Cup, a landmark moment for the club and a stage on which her pace and direct running caught wider attention. That European success has now turned into a Premier League opportunity.

On the international stage, Jusu Bah has become a regular part of Sweden’s plans. She has made 11 appearances for the national team and featured in all six of their Women’s World Cup qualifying matches this year, a sign of the trust placed in her at the highest level.

United are not finished. The club are understood to be pushing to add at least one more player before the window closes next week, as they look to deepen the squad and sharpen competition for places across the pitch.

This move continues a busy period of recruitment. United have already brought in defender Andrea Medina from Atletico Madrid and goalkeeper Janina Leitzig from Leicester City, strengthening the spine of the team. Now they are turning to the flanks.

If the paperwork lands in time, Monica Jusu Bah will arrive in Manchester as the latest piece of an ambitious rebuild, stepping from Swedish success into the unforgiving glare of the WSL.
