IFK Norrköping was stated for a long time to be in the fight to recruit Tomas Totland from Tromsö. Ytterbacken, however, ended up in BK Häcken, which according to information to The football channel paid around four million kronor for the transition.
Totland is just one of several big, expensive transitions ahead of the upcoming Allsvenskan season. Beijing has also spent money on new acquisitions when it recently became clear that brass Jean Carlos de Brito is being recruited from Varberg.
Large transfer sums, which surprises Rikard Norling.
“Paradoxically, when we are in such a period with a pandemic and lower incomes, transitional sums and wage images almost tend to increase,” he says to Norrköpings Tidningar, and answers why he thinks so:
– Do not know. There I almost became: “Damn, that’s not true then”. One after the other goes for 5, 6, 7, 8 million.
NT: Like Totland?
– Including. These are substantial sums that the clubs pay. Maybe it’s the new default mode, what do I know?
According to Norwegian media, Beijing was “sniffed” at the recruitment of Tomas Totland. In an interview with Expressen However, the club’s chief scout, Stig Torbjörnsen, has said that four million – which is the alleged sum – was an “overprice for a Norwegian right-back”.
IFK Norrköping has so far finished with Daniel Eid from Sogndal, Jean Carlos de Brito from Varberg and Godswill Ekpolo from Häcken.
