Five years after winning the Ballon d'Or, hegerberg is back on the Norway team.
The Lyon forward stopped playing for the national side because of a perceived lack of respect for female players in Norway.
She was included in the squad for the World Cup games against Kosovo and Poland.
Hegerberg, who has 38 goals in 66 games for Norway, may play in the European Championship in England.
She said it felt good to be back.
I will do my part to help us achieve great things, both on and off the field - for football, for Norway, but not least for the next generation.
Hegerberg, who missed 20 months with a knee injury, is considered to be one of the greatest players in the women's game.
Kosovo and Poland will be hosted by Norway on 7 and 12 April, respectively.
England, Northern Ireland and Austria are in the same group.
Martin Sjogren described Hegerberg as one of the best in the world and said her return meant a lot to the national team.
For the most part, we have talked about how we see the future together and not what has happened.
It was mostly about how we can make the team even better with the help of Ada. The conversations have been good.
The NFF tried to get Hegerberg to return to international football.
Lise Klaveness is the president of the NFF.
Hegerberg said that he was able to have honest discussions with the federation.
I am happy to be back with the team and start a new story.
