"I see that you have missed me, also on the pitch. I missed you too

Putting on Sweden’s national team shirt as a footballer is the biggest thing that exists. I have worn the shirt with pride and love. I also had the honor to be captain.

Uff. Now I have butterflies in the stomach.since day one you have given me love, support, energy. You have given me many nice memories that I will never forget. You made it possible for me to break the goal record. From the heart, a big thank you.

To the younger generation I say dare to dream big. If you don’t have the strength to dream big, look at my journey and take strength from it. I am living evidence that nothing is impossible no matter where you come from. 25 years ago I said I would become the best ever, many people laughed. 25 years later I can stand gere and say that I am the best ever.

I hope you have enjoyed my journey. I want to finish with: Sweden you’re welcome. I love you"

    God I wish he never got those injuries in his last season. I know it’s a big ask but I wish he got to close his career on more of a high instead of sort of just petering out.
