DONE DEAL: Hammarby chief proud as Williot Swedberg leaves for Celta Vigo

Celta Vigo have signed Hammarby attacker Williot Swedberg.

The 18 year-old has signed a contract with Celta until the summer of 2027.

Hammarby sports director Jesper Jansson said: "It feels fantastic to have worked with Williot and that we in Hammarby have nurtured such great talent. We wish Williot all the best, and hope that our paths cross again one day.

"It is not often that players are sold directly from the Allsvenskan to La Liga, so I think that everyone involved during Williot's journey should feel proud. At the same time, it is sad to already have to say goodbye to him, but he feels ready to take this step and it is of course a dream and a huge opportunity for a young and so talented football player to compete in a league that houses many world-class players."
