William Lundin Responds to Degerfors Dismissal Surprise

William Lundin was fired as coach in Degerfors – after shortcomings in work environment and leadership, according to the club. Now he comments himself. I have been head coach for 18 months in Degerfors and not received any indication or negative feedback about my leadership, says Lundin to Aftonbladet.

In an interview with Nya Wermlands-Tidningen, Degerfors chairman Ulrika Eriksson explains that, among other things, it is the team's week-long camp on Gotland that has made the club act.

It was no specific event, she says to the newspaper. More that what had been lying and brewing escalated.

William Lundin responds in an interview with Aftonbladet.

I get surprised when I hear these things about me and my leadership, he says and continues:

I have certainly made pedagogical mistakes that I could have done differently, but as a player in elite football at the highest level, you must be able to handle taking feedback both individually and in a group.

William Lundin led Degerfors back to Allsvenskan during his first year, 2024. The team is currently in eleventh place in Allsvenskan.

Tobias Solberg has temporarily taken over the role of head coach pending a permanent recruitment.
