Following the transfer of midfielder Magnus Eriksson back to his former club in Sweden, we checked in with Earthquakes general manager Jesse Fioranelli about his plans in the summer transfer window and upcoming offseason.
What was the reasoning behind Magnus Eriksson’s departure?
“It made more sense to transfer him now considering our future roster plans as well as from a financial perspective. The latter was not the primary goal of ours but Magnus‘ contract was going to expire in December. Following several talks, we felt that Djurgarden’s proposal was a win-win for our club and for Magnus who wanted to return to his family and to his former club.
