Jesper Karlström joins Udinese in Serie A

After 3 years, Jesper Karlström is parting ways with Lech Poznań. The experienced midfielder will join the Italian club Udinese Calcio in Serie A on a permanent transfer.

Karlström joined Lech Poznań in the winter transfer window of 2021 from a Swedish club Djurgårdens IF. It didn’t take long for the midfielder to become a key figure in Lech’s squad.

The 29-year-old was an important figure in Lech Poznans squad and greatly impacted Lech winning the 8th Championship trophy in the club’s history in 2022.

Over the next 12 months, Karlström and his teammates made it to the quarterfinal of the Europa Conference League and it was the Swede’s assist to Artur Sobiech that gave Lech a three-goal lead in the second leg of the clash with Fiorentina.

In addition, the Swedish midfielder was a part of the team council and had the privilege of wearing the captain's armband three times. Karlström made 144 appearances for Lech Poznan, scored 4 goals, and assisted his teammates 9 times.

We are really looking forward to see Jesper continue his journey in Udinese Calcio in Serie A.
