JAKARTA - Former Danish striker, Jon Dahl Tomasson, has been appointed Sweden's manager. This news was announced by the Swedish Football Federation on Monday, February 26, making him the country's first foreign coach ever.

Tomasson, who recently resigned as manager of England's second division club Blackburn Rovers, has signed a contract that runs until the 2026 World Cup qualifying campaign, which will be automatically extended if it manages to qualify for the next round.

"I'm really excited to start this big task and meet supporters, players, and of course the media in Sweden. And to be able to think, talk, and dream in the blue and yellow," said 47-year-old Tomasson.

Tomasson has made 112 appearances for Denmark and taken over from Janne Andersson who left the role after Sweden failed to qualify for Euro 2024 when they finished third in the group stage behind Belgium and Austria.
