He was brought to the Umeå-based club Tegs SK for the 1987 season in Sweden.[5] His goalscoring ability earned him a contract with Djurgårdens IF – where he stayed for two seasons which included a loan spell in Scotland with St Mirren.[6] In 1990, he returned to Umeå to help local club Umeå FC rise in the Swedish football league.[7]
