André Hansen damages knee ligaments — 140 days out
The words a physio says slowly. 140 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

118 days out for Pontus Jansson after a fracture
A bone, which is the one injury with a calendar attached. Malmo FF will name a return date and, unusually for this business, will probably be right about it.

Bleon Kurtuluş has one foot out of the door
Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Malmo FF they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Pontus Jansson in a row with a teammate
It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Malmo FF this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Malmo FF rebuffed over Marcus Rohdén
Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. IF Elfsborg have kept their man, and Malmo FF go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

When it matters, Pontus Jansson plays
It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

The manager makes an example of Oscar Sjöstrand
“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

The Mayckel Lahdo story refuses to die
It has been denied twice and printed three times, which is the usual arithmetic. Until Mayckel Lahdo signs something — a contract at Malmo FF or anywhere else — this column belongs to him.
In brief
- The dugout Anton Höög asks for a word with the manager
- The dugout Yanis Karabelyov has been promised minutes
- Market Still no signature from Johan Hammar
