The 23-year-old goalkeeper was cleared for the Italian club in July. But not without trouble.
It was incredibly tough. There has been a lot of back and forth with Hans (Larsson), but it ended in a very good way.
So it was a hassle?
Yes, it was a hassle, but now we are friends.
He says he prepared a special picture on Instagram.
When everything became as it became and I finalized everything with Como, I had prepared an Instagram post with Arrividerci, period, and with the championship trophy, now it became a reality, says Törnqvist.
Took pain relievers
He got to play the gold match at Gamla Ullevi on pain relievers due to a lock in his back.
But it was not an option to miss this match, says Törnqvist, who needed a large dose to manage the match.
Too much. But sometimes you have to take what necessity demands.
The season became special. Mjällby has had a comfortable lead for a longer time and outsiders have said that it has been clear.
”Did not want to take anything out”
But Noel Törnqvist has refused to listen. Already in May, former IFK Göteborg goalkeeper John Alvbåge sent a greeting that the gold was clear. Törnqvist responded with a laughing emoji.
When people start saying such things, it just feels like you have things to lose instead. Similarly at the national team gathering (in October), when everyone said congratulations, but I do not want to take anything for granted if we were to lose because of it, he says.
How will you celebrate?
We will go out and eat something good and then I hope we do not come home to the hotel for a while, says Törnqvist, who does not drink alcohol.
Törnqvist says he expects former pro David Löfquist and team captain Jesper Gustafsson to hold the reins at the party.
Then I am incredibly good at parties even though I do not drink, so I have to try to get something going.
