In the semi-final in Gothenburg four weeks ago, Olle Östberg of Brandsta City Släckers injured his finger during rehearsals and had four stitches.
With one week left until the final in Stockholm, Östberg was hospitalized with knee problems, which turned out to be acute gout.
Östberg has difficulty walking and will not be present at the press conference on Thursday.
We have to save him now, says Ulf Johansson.
However, Östberg will participate in Thursday's rehearsal.
He gets to stand at the keyboard and feel the moves. His goal, too, is for him to be there on Saturday, says Glenn Borgkvist.
