It was before the national team’s hiatus that IFK Gothenburg decided to fire head coach Poya Asbaghi after the team only got a draw against Mjällby and had not won a match at the Allsvenskan since July.
After Asbaghi’s firing, there have been many rumors about who could take over as IFK Gothenburg’s new head coach.
The parties will have a meeting shortly
According to insiders from SportExpressen near IFK Gothenburg, Blåvitt has now named a lead candidate. Roland Nilsson, captain of the U21 national team. The parties should have already had initial contact and another meeting is planned shortly. If negotiations go awry, Nilsson will be introduced as IFK Gothenburg’s new head coach within the next week.
Roland Nilsson has made 116 international appearances for Sweden and also played for IFK Gothenburg from 1983 to 1989 and made a total of 127 appearances for the club. He has won three golds at the Swedish Championship with the club and also won gold at the Swedish Championship with Helsingborgs IF in 1999.
May be presented shortly
He won the Uefa Cup with Blåvitt in 1987 and also won the Ballon d’Or in 1996. He was a key player when Sweden won the World Cup bronze in the United States in 1994 and after a playing career at Helsingborgs IF, IFK Gothenburg, Sheffield Wednesday, Coventry and Gais continued as coach. First in Coventry, then in Gais and then also in MFF and FC Copenhagen.
He has now been the captain of the U21 national team for a long time and must therefore be bought by the Swedish Football Association if IFK Gothenburg hires him as a coach.
