It was an extra long lap of honor after the victory against Ilves for the goalkeeper. Despite a goal, he was able to help Djurgården advance to the playoff round of the Conference League qualifiers in his last game.
– There are a lot of emotions. To finish with a victory and that we advance to the playoffs feels very good, said Jacob Widell Zetterström to SVT Sport afterwards.
The 26-year-old signed a contract with Djurgården ahead of the 2019 season and was part of the team that won SM gold.
Took a break after double head injuries
After double head injuries, he took a break from football. In 2021 he returned and since then he has guarded between the posts for the Stockholm club.
– I have enjoyed myself here during all the years I have been in Djurgården.
During Friday, the goalkeeper was officially presented by Derby County, who are newcomers to the English second division The Championship.
– It will be fast-paced, bang on and different from here at home. It will be a great challenge for me, he says Djurgården’s website.
