Forward profile Robin Kovács, 27 years old, is back in Swedish ice hockey.

Kovács is moving home from Switzerland and has signed a four-year contract with Linköping.

"It feels incredibly good and nice to finally get this done with LHC. Linköping is a club that is on the rise and I really feel that it's a club that will be at the top of Swedish hockey in the future", says Kovács in a press release.

The transfer has been in the works for a while and on Friday, the contract with Swiss Lausanne, which he has represented for the past two seasons, was terminated.

Kovács, who broke through in HockeyAllsvenskan AIK, has previously represented Luleå and Örebro in SHL and has scored 171 points, 74 goals and 97 assists in 257 matches in the top league.
