Striker Petrus Palmu moved to SHL’s Örebroho last summer with a two-year contract. However, the expectations were not fulfilled in Örebro, because in 15 matches the attacker scored 1+3.
Palmu was left out of the playing lineup recently.
The club and the player’s representatives negotiated a new solution for a long time and reportedly reached an agreement on Thursday afternoon. Joensuu grew up to continue his career in Sweden, according to Iltalehti’s information, in the Linköping team.
The Swedish newspaper Expressen also rumored about it on Thursday afternoon.
Before Thursday’s games, Örebro is sixth in the western neighbor’s league, Linköping is seventh.
Power in Mikkeli
The forward who scored a handsome 26 goals and 59 points in Jukurie’s shirt last season would certainly have been suitable for many league teams, as the player market is quite empty this winter.
Last season, Palmu was chosen as the most valuable player of the SM league regular season.
The player’s contract with Linköping covers this and next season.
Linköping’s head coach is Klas Östman. They bring Finnish color to the team Jasse Ikonen and Markus Hännikäinen.
