Philip Berglund named Malmö FF sporting director

Philip Berglund is your new sporting director

Malmö FF have appointed Philip Berglund as their new sporting director (1) (2) (3) (4) (5). He comes straight from Hammarby, where he worked as chief scout (6). MFF confirmed the move in an official press release.

That's the headline from a rival club, by the way. Berglund spent time at Hammarby building their scouting operation, and now he walks straight into one of the biggest jobs in Swedish football. Whether that's a coup or a gamble depends on what he does next.
