Key details
Hussein Carneil, the midfielder from IFK Göteborg, is set to leave the club following a notable decrease in his playing time. After appearing 22 times in the 2022 Allsvenskan season, Carneil's participation dwindled to just 12 games in 2023, with only two appearances made in the 2024 season. His last match was on October 21, 2024.
The club's sport director, Hannes Stiller, confirmed Carneil's departure, wishing him well for his future endeavors. "Hussein has taken the path through our academy and is a guy we wish all the best moving forward. He has had limited playing time, and that is why we, together with him, have agreed that he will now move on. We hope he continues his development and wish him good luck ahead," Stiller stated.
Despite a reported opportunity for a loan to secure more playing time, Carneil declined the offer, expressing confusion about his limited opportunities on the field. In a previous interview, he mentioned, "It’s important to perform well in training, and I have been doing that, so I actually don’t know why I haven’t played more than with the U21 team." This transfer could mark a significant turning point in Carneil's career as he looks for new playing opportunities.
