Djurgården continues to recruit during the summer window. Previously, the team has finalized with Adam Ståhl, Viktor Bergh, and August Priske.

Now the team has also brought in a new goalkeeper.

On Monday, 31-year-old Jacob Rinne was presented, who comes most recently from Saudi Arabia and Al-Fateh.

The 31-year-old has signed a contract that extends over the 2028 season.

It became a bit emotional in the office and this feels, of course, incredibly good. Maybe a top 3 day in my life, he says to the club's website.

Rinne has made 3 A-international appearances for Sweden, and is perhaps being recruited as a potential replacement for Jacob Widell Zetterström, who has been heavily rumored to leave Blåränderna during the summer.
