Hervé Matthys set for AIK medical as free transfer nears

Jul 10, 2026

AIK have reached an agreement with Belgian centre-back Hervé Matthys, who is expected to arrive in Solna for a medical ahead of a free transfer from Polish side Motor Lublin (1). The 28-year-old would arrive at no cost and bolster a defence that has been stretched thin, Henning Berg was forced into six changes against IFK Göteborg last time out, with twelve players unavailable. A reinforcement at the back feels timely. Your team sit 11th in Allsvenskan, three points above the relegation playoff spot after a chaotic first half of the season, and Matthys represents the kind of squad-depth signing the club has been chasing.
