After officially finishing the season with Sporting, Viktor Gyökeres appeared in Sweden’s squad for the June international window, with two friendly matches scheduled. However, the striker, one of the most talked about on the market, was released from his duties with the Swedish national team by coach Jon Dahl Tomasson due to injury.
According to the note published by the Swedish federation on the official website, the ’98 born player suffers from a physical problem. “Before the start of training camp, it was clear that both striker Viktor Gyökeres and full-back Linus Wahlqvist Egnell were sent home due to injuries sustained in the latter part of the season while playing for their respective clubs,” it said. .
In addition to Gyökeres, Linus Wahlqvist Egnell will also be forced to withdraw due to physical problems. “Of course it’s a shame for Viktor, Linus and also for us, but we hope they have a good recovery,” said Sweden coach Jon Dahl Tomasson, waiting to welcome his selection into training camp next Sunday.
