Vecchia leaves after two league titles and a cup
Stefano Vecchia is gone. Malmö FF confirmed the forward's departure on Thursday, ending a stint that brought two SM-guld and a cup title (1).
Vecchia leaves for free, his contract terminated by mutual agreement. The reason is simple: playing time dried up. "Stefano has been a valued player, but wants more minutes than we can offer right now," the club stated. The move fits the broader squad rejuvenation the club has been pushing this summer (1).
Another contract torn up, another exit
A second player is also on his way out, contract terminated (2). Aftonbladet reports the deal has been ripped up, though the player's name is not yet public (2). The window closes soon, and Malmö are clearing the deck.
