Hanna Carolina Ljungberg (born 8 January 1979) is a Swedish former association football forward.

From 1998 to 2009, Ljungberg made 227 appearances and scored 196 goals for Umeå IK in the Damallsvenskan, winning the Diamond Ball (Diamantbollen) in 2002.

[5] In the 70th minute of a cup match against AIK on 17 May 2007, Carola Söberg's injury forced Ljungberg to play in goal.

As a highly prolific striker, she was instrumental in the Swedish side that were runners-up at the 2003 FIFA Women's World Cup held in the United States, scoring three goals and assisting one more.

[7] During the UEFA Women's Cup 2002-03, Ljungberg was the top goalscorer in the tournament with 10 goals.

[8] Italian men's football club Perugia contacted Ljungberg to hire her for their Serie A roster, but the deal was aborted.

[9][10] In August 2009, Ljungberg announced her retirement after a knee injury in a league match on 5 July.

Her right anterior cruciate ligament, previously reconstructed in 2004, was again partly torn and she decided with her doctors that to continue to play presented too high a risk of permanent disability.

Later on, she helped Joakim Blomqvist and his assistant Maria Bergkvist in the coaching of her old team.

At the same time, Ljungberg was studying at Umeå University to become a physiotherapist and graduated in June 2012.

Hanna Ljungberg appeared at three European Championship tournaments: Norway/Sweden 1997, Germany 2001, and England 2005.
