SFN Editor ·
GAIS are actively pursuing summer signings to strengthen their squad despite dealing with significant injury problems that have tested their depth in the early stages of the Allsvenskan season.
The Gothenburg club has impressed by keeping pace with the top teams in Sweden's premier division, even while managing a lengthy injury list that has forced tactical adjustments from the coaching staff.
"We are working for that to happen, yes," technical director Magnus Sköldmark told Expressen, confirming the club's intention to bring in reinforcements during the summer transfer window.
The 57-year-old technical director outlined ambitious plans that include both immediate squad improvements and long-term financial strategy. GAIS are preparing for what could be a historic period, with European competition on the horizon pending their continued strong domestic form.
Sköldmark hinted at the club's improved financial position, suggesting they have the resources to make meaningful additions to their playing staff. The technical director also discussed potential high-profile targets and the club's approach to developing young talent with significant market value.
GAIS returned to the Allsvenskan in 2024 after years in the second tier, and their early success has raised expectations among supporters who are dreaming of European nights returning to Gothenburg for the first time in decades.
