Contracts are running out across the squad
A long list of Malmö FF players are on expiring contracts, which opens the door to bosman exits (3) (4). The names include Anders Christiansen, Johan Dahlin, Pontus Jansson, Sead Haksabanovic, Robin Olsen and Stian Gregersen (3) (4).
On the list you also find Raphael Adjei, Alexandru Ghita, Otto Rosengren, Joakim Persson, Jens Stryger Larsen, Yanis Karabelyov, Viggo Jeppsson, Malte Frejd Pålsson, Sashwat Rana, Adrian Skogmar, Kenan Busuladzic, Theodor Lundbergh, Viggo Karlsson, Zakaria Loukili, Medjen Llumnica, Daniel Gudjohnsen, Antonio Palac, Andrej Djuric, Warren Kamanzi, Gabriel Busanello, Noah Åstrand John, Jovan Milosavljevic, Gentian Lajqi, Salifou Soumah, Diego García, Emmanuel Ekong, Omar Krajina, Bleon Kurtulus, William Nieroth Lundgren, Anton Höög, Mayckel Lahdo, Oscar Sjöstrand and Isaac Assibu (3) (4).
When deals run down like this, the club can lose players for nothing. That is the whole point of the list.
