After the SM gold in the spring, Luleå's big profile Linus Omark thanked for himself. Since then, the rumors have been hot about where the experienced forward will play next.

Among other things, there have been reports that Hockeyallsvenska Södertälje has lured with a giant salary, but that has not been enough in that case. Instead, it will be play in Swiss Lugano for Omark – at least for a while ahead.

The 38-year-old has signed a contract that extends until the national team break in November, the club writes in a press release. Lugano has several players on the injury list and therefore wants to broaden the squad during the autumn.
