West Brom defender Jonas Olsson ends nine-year spell with Tony Pulis's side ahead of move back to Sweden

Swedish defender Jonas Olsson has left West Brom to return to his homeland and join Djurgarden.

The 34-year-old would have been out of contract in the summer, but has reached a mutual agreement with Albion to terminate the remaining months of his deal so that he can sign for the Stockholm-based club in time for the start of the Swedish season next week.

His departure brings to an end a nine-year stay at The Hawthorns in which he helped West Brom win promotion back to the Premier League, making 194 starts and scoring eight goals in the top flight.
