Allsvenskan runner's-up Elfsborg are preparing for an uncertain winter. A bulk of the side that finished 2nd to Kalmar are expected to leave the club.
Elfsborg coach Magnus Haglund could also by on his way after the 2nd place finish but nothing has been confirmed by the Borås based club.
Goodbye Wiland:
One major departure already confirmed is Johan Wiland. The Elfsborg No.1 is leaving for Denmark's FC Kobenhavn and will join up with Cesar Santin who also left the Allsvenskan in July. Wiland's future was always in doubt after a great season. Rumours had it that Tottenham were interested but Wiland will be a Kobenhavn player on Januray 1st.
Other potential departures:
Former Portsmouth striker James Keene could also be on his way with Blackpool and Ipswich interested. Keene has another 3 years left on his contract that he signed when he joined Elfsborg last year.
The future of Anders Svensson has been rife for some time and weather he makes a move abroad remains sealed. Elfsborg would like to keep him for next season but a good offer might be too good for Elfsborg.
Lasse Nilsson is all set for his return to Saint-Étienne after a successful loan spell last season. But Elfsborg have received offers for Swedish-Albanian Emir Bajrami. Rumours have it that he will be in Serie A in January.
