Bosse Andersson has left his role as sports director at Djurgårdens IF, the club announced. He will remain as an advisor to chairman Erik Gozzi. Andersson has been with the club for a total of 24 years across two stints, during which he won four Swedish championships and four cup titles.
The club's new CEO Hampus Frisén did not attend the press conference announcing the decision. Frisén reportedly said his absence was to avoid unnecessary attention and to let Andersson have the spotlight. He described his relationship with Andersson as positive, citing a wedding greeting from Andersson as an example.
