Key details
Montader Madjed, the 20-year-old rising star at Hammarby, has attracted significant transfer interest following a strong season where he scored seven goals and assisted five. Hammarby's sports director, Mikael Hjelmberg, confirmed that multiple offers for Madjed have been rejected. "We have been clear with all those clubs that we have no ambition to sell. We want to keep 'Monte' here," Hjelmberg said.
While no official price has been set, Hjelmberg suggested that the club would consider selling if an offer approached 100 million SEK, stating, "Then it starts to burn." This strong valuation reflects Madjed's increasing profile and importance to Hammarby's squad. The club currently has no plans to sell any players ahead of the upcoming season, except for Pavle Vagic, who has been permitted to visit a foreign club that may result in his departure.
In parallel, Hammarby is also working on extending the contract of another promising talent, Adrian Lahdo, aiming to finalize the agreement before the team's training camp in Marbella. Hjelmberg expressed confidence in the team's current roster, noting that there is no urgency to bring in replacements.
The club’s firm stance on Madjed underscores their ambition to maintain a strong competitive team with key players intact for the upcoming season.
