It is rumored that Oliver Berg is gone.
But can the Kalmar star leave the team he really loves?
– According to my way of watching football, we play better in Allsvenskan. I’m enjoying it, says the Norwegian after the win against Djurgården.
Henrik Redström chooses Oliver Berg before 2021. The offensive midfielder will be the crucial piece of the puzzle for the coach’s overall transformation Kalmar. Last year, the Norwegian also quickly became one of the best players of the series ever and Redstrom’s extended arm on the field.
this year?
– Now it’s better. Oliver is leading the team and doing more important things this year, says Henrik Rydström.
“If you want to be cocky…”
Against Djurgården, Berg hit a corner shot by Lars Saitra in injury time. In addition, as usual he was crucial to playing alongside Romario and Kali Gustafson from the opponents’ attempts at high pressure. The mountains dominated like a spider in the web.
– If you want to be a little cocky… we’ve had no issues with Djurgården Press at all. We find our triangles in the square and the correct positions. I think victory is fair.
Who plays football better than Kalmar now?
– According to my way of watching football, we play better in Allsvenskan. But there is no conclusion and there are different ways to Rome. But if I look at myself and look at the other Allsvenskan teams, I can’t see that I would be more comfortable with the football being played elsewhere in the Allsvenskan.
“Enjoy playing in Kalmar”
Berg acts almost like a coach playing Kalmar FF. He has plans to enter the profession after his career and offers resistance to the intellectual chewiness of football that Redstroms invites with his players.
– It’s funny that he thinks I’m better this year. I enjoy playing Kalmar FF. I love playing football here. We need to be more consistent and always do the boring work every day, but we’ve come a long way in our journey. When we play to our best, we are very good.
You can leave for games outside
At the same time, the big clubs grab his attention. Earlier in May, Expressen reported that major Hungarian club Ferencvaros had made an offer for the player.
– It’s hard to talk about it. I didn’t know anything about it until I read the newspaper.
How do you see that trade off – venturing into a bigger club or staying somewhere you know you love?
If there is such a bid on the table for an adventure, you have to take a stand on it. Then I have to think about what’s best for me. If you play well and do well, there will be interests, it is the result of the work that I want to do.
