Jacob Bergström is entering his ninth season with Mjällby AIF, having played over 200 matches across three stints with the club. His contract reportedly expires after 2026, but he has no plans to leave and hopes to extend it soon. Bergström previously left Mjällby AIF twice, first in 2019 to try his luck with Norwegian club Mjøndalen and again in 2023 when he was drawn to Djurgården in Stockholm, but he has always returned.
In an interview with Blekingesport, he discussed feeling better than ever, expectations for a historic season with Champions League qualifiers, and handling increased recognition, even in public showers.
