"He is the first foreign national team coach with us. It will be really interesting to work with him," Elanga told Discovery+.
"He was a great striker in his day, so I think especially everyone in the attacking department is licking their lips because they know he was a skilled striker who won a lot of trophies. It will be fine."
Elanga doesn't care that the new national team coach is from Denmark.
"It's a new generation and a new era, so I feel we needed something different, and now it's finally in place," he says.
"Hopefully it can be the start of something big for the Swedish national team."
