United boss Marc Skinner believes Sandberg’s European experience with Hacken will be of benefit.
“We are delighted to have Anna join our Manchester United family,” he said.
“She is a talented young player, who already has a wealth of international and Champions League experience. We look forward to seeing her develop further in red.”
