The Norwegian international put pen to paper with Albion.

"She has a lot of experience domestically in Norway as well as with her national team so it’s a really good signing for us.

“We are convinced by her quality, so I have no doubt that she won’t need long to adapt to the league.”

Bergsvand is also a Norway international and represented her country as part of the squad in the European Championships last summer alongside her fellow Albion teammate Elisabeth Terland.
