Alice Jenny Bergström (born 3 February 2003) is a Swedish professional footballer who plays as a right-back or right winger for Women's Super League club Liverpool and the Sweden under-23 national team.

Club career

Early career

Bergström came up through the academy at Tyresö FF, signing her first professional contract in 2019.[1] The following season, she was the topscorer of the Division 1, scoring 14 goals in 11 matches in 2020.[2] In 2021, Bergström joined Elitettan club Älvsjö AIK,[1] where she netted 8 times in 26 appearances.[3]

Djugården

On 28 July 2021, Bergström inked a one-year contract for Swedish top-flight team Djurgårdens IF. She stayed at Älvsjö for five more months to round out the year before officially joining Djugården ahead of the 2022 Damallsvenskan.[4] Bergström grappled with injury problems during preseason training and only ended up making 8 starts in 22 matches across her first season in the Damallsvenskan.[5]

Bergström's playing time grew in her second year at Djugården, as she started all of the club's league matches in 2023.[6] In March 2023, she scored her first Damallsvenskan goal, the game-winner against her future club BK Häcken.[7] She was among nine players to initially depart from Djugården at the end of the season.[6]

BK Häcken

In December 2023, Bergström was announced to have signed a three-year contract with BK Häcken.[8] She made her Häcken debut in the UEFA Women's Champions League, participating in the club's quarterfinal first leg match against French team Paris Saint-Germain;[9] PSG would eventually go on to eliminate Häcken 5–1 on aggregate.[10] Once the Damallsvenskan started up, Bergström grew in confidence.[11] She recorded 8 goals and 6 assists across the year in what has been described as a "breakthrough" season for her.[12][13]

In 2025, Bergström's versatility was tested, and she was asked to play deeper down the field as a right-back on several occasions.[14] She still managed to find chances to contribute offensively, including a long-distance goal against Kristianstads DFF in June 2025 that helped Häcken steal a draw in the waning minutes of the match.[15] At the end of the year, Häcken finished in first place of the league and won the Damallsvenskan title for only the second time in club history.[16]

Liverpool

On 2 January 2026, it was announced that Bergström had joined English club Liverpool, subject to international clearance, for an undisclosed fee.[17][18] She made her Women's Super League debut on 11 January, starting and creating several chances in a scoreless draw with the London City Lionesses.[19] She scored her first goals for Liverpool one week later, netting twice to help the club earn a 6–0 win over the London Bees in the Women's FA Cup.[20]

International career

Bergström started her international career with the Sweden under-19 national team, where she made 3 appearances and scored one goal.[3][8] She has been capped 22 times for the U23 team; in 2025, she became one of the oldest and most experienced members of the squad.[3]

Bergström received her first call-up to the Sweden senior national team in November 2025,[21][22] ahead of two UEFA Women's Nations League matches against France to decide the third-place winner of the competition.[23]
