Lennart is coming home

Lennart Johansson, born 5 November 1929, was the fifth and, to date, the longest serving president of UEFA, the Union of European Football Associations, from his election at UEFA’s Malta Congress in 1990 until 2007.


Mr. Johansson, a legend in Swedish soccer, has also named the trophy for the Swedish Championship in football/soccer. A great leader.


Everybody wants it, but only one can have it. This season the trophy will be handed over to my club Malmö FF at a ceremony after the last game of the season this afternoon on Malmö. It is third time in four years we win the Swedosh Championship and Lennart Johanssons trophy. It is the 19th time in total we win, more than anybody else. Lastbuear we missed the title, but now it is returned to where it belongs.


It is a great day for my Club, for all fans and for me. Lennart is coming home.
