It is known that there are players abroad who are Swedish and have received threats, we have handled this together with the clubs where these players are. Reports are made in the country where the players are and are coordinated with the Swedish police, says Martin Fredman, security chief at the Swedish Football Association, to Radiosporten.
According to Fredman, the same perpetrator is suspected to have been behind the threats previously.
It appears to be the same perpetrator who over time is carrying out this and finds new players, some return and receive repeated threats and some are new, he says.
It was on Wednesday that TV4's Fotbollskanalen revealed that more players had received threats ahead of the Damallsvenskan start at the weekend.
According to Fotbollskanalen, 10-15 players have received threats. Last season, players in Rosengård were affected by repeated threats.
