From our football correspondent Upbeat

Market

Víctor Brid asks to leave Hammarby

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Squad

Victor Lind 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 Hammarby this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Player ratings

A masterclass from Montader Madjed

Marked 9.44 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

Match

Hammarby find a way past IFK Norrkoping

IFK Norrkoping made Hammarby work for it, but the scoreboard read 3‑1 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Player ratings

Victor Lind in the eights

A performance of 9.04 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

Squad

Viktor Đukanović gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Player ratings

A masterclass from Suwaibou Kebbeh

Marked 8.66 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

Player ratings

One of those days for Paulos Abraham

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.32, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Squad

Tesfaldet Tekie asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

Market

Santiago Benítez asks to leave Hammarby

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Market

Oscar Johansson Schellhas is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Hammarby is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Squad

Tempers go at Hammarby

Victor Lind was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Market

Gefle join the queue for Svante Stangenberg

Add another name to the list: Gefle have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Svante Stangenberg. The answer from Hammarby has not changed — yet.

Squad

Leon Cornaire signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Leon Cornaire commits to Hammarby for another 4 years.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Leon Cornaire

“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.

From our football correspondent Steady

Market

Víctor Brid puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Hammarby, and it is not being withdrawn.

Market

Victor Lind raises the bar for Hammarby

“I want to be playing for trophies while my legs still let me.” Nothing in that sentence is a transfer request, and nobody at Hammarby heard it as anything else.

Squad

Tempers go at Hammarby

Victor Lind was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad

Oscar Johansson Schellhas out for 87 days

The medical room confirms 87 days on the sidelines for Oscar Johansson Schellhas, and a plan built around him now has to be rebuilt.

Market

Santiago Cartagena attracts admirers

The name of Santiago Cartagena has come up in conversations Hammarby were not part of. Nothing formal, nothing signed — but nothing about it accidental either.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Roman Zhmurko

“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.
