No end in sight to IFK Goteborg's wait for a win
5 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at IFK Goteborg has to find a result from somewhere.

Falkenberg come back empty-handed
The bid was some way short and IFK Goteborg did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Jakob Olsson signs on for the long haul
IFK Goteborg moved before anybody else could: a new deal for Jakob Olsson, agreed quietly and announced loudly. Boards extend managers for many reasons; the good one is the one this looks like.

Tempers go at IFK Goteborg
Tobias Heintz 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.
Market3 Apr 2028
Anton Berg comes home
The shirt still fits. Anton Berg is back at IFK Goteborg, and half the ground remembers him in these colours already. Some signings need selling to the town; this one sold itself.
Market3 Apr 2028
As if he never left: John Claesson returns
Some transfers need a press campaign. This one needed a shirt with the old number on it. John Claesson is a IFK Goteborg player again, and the town has its story of the summer.
Market3 Apr 2028
Nils Lustig is a IFK Goteborg player again
He left as a boy and has come back still knowing where the away end is. Most signings have to be explained to a town; this one needed a photograph and nothing else.

A masterclass from Rasmus Wiedesheim-Paul
Marked 8.31 — 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.

Johan Hammar stays put
“The easiest signature of my career.” Johan Hammar and IFK Goteborg agree another 1 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.
In brief
- Player ratings Nobody could get near Imam Jagne
- Boardroom IFK Goteborg board go back on their word
- Squad No hiding place for Felipe Karabulut
