Oskari Laaksonen26, The conquest of Switzerland ended in a short one. The kit known from Leijon moved to the ranks of Biel-Bienne for this season with a two-year deal, which has now been terminated.
Laaksonen had time to play only 16 matches in the Swiss main series with 0+4 performances before he found himself in the stands. Now Laaksonen returns to Luleå’s shirt.
Aftonbladet according to the man has signed a giant contract with the club for no less than 4.5 years, which will not end until spring 2030.
– We weren’t actively looking for a player of his caliber, but when the opportunity came, we didn’t hesitate. Especially when he is able to help us both this season and in the longer term, Luleå’s sporting director Thomas Fröberg tells.
The city of Luleå is familiar to Laaksose, as he represented Luleå in the previous two seasons. Last spring, the season ended with the SHL championship, but the current season has been more difficult. Luleå is currently only ranked 11/14 in the series.
However, the team has made hard acquisitions, because before Laakso, the club strengthened its attacking equipment With Linus Omark and By Ben Tardiff. Omark shone in the early season in Switzerland, and Tardiff was the Kärppie’s star striker.
Laaksonen is already the seventh Finn in Luleå. In addition to him, the club plays Kasper Kotkansalo, Otto Leskinen, Eetu Koivistoinen, Anton Levtchi, Heikki Liedes and Markus Nurmi.
