Former football star Zlatan Ibrahimovic and his partner Helena Seger have reportedly lost a rental dispute in the Swedish Court of Appeal, according to legal publication Dagens Juridik. The case involves a rental property on Östermalm in Stockholm that Ibrahimovic purchased several years ago. The dispute began when a tenant, who had rented the apartment through a rental agency, was evicted but refused to move out.
Instead, the tenant sued the property owner, demanding the right to remain in the apartment with the same rights as a primary tenant. In November 2024, the Stockholm District Court ruled that the tenant had the right to stay in the apartment. The Court of Appeal has now upheld that decision, siding with the tenant in the ongoing legal battle.
The case centered on whether the tenant should be forced to leave or could remain with the same rights as a primary tenant despite having been evicted.
