Allsvenskan or Nothing: AIK Fotboll (Ep. 4)
Stockholm, Sweden – Thursday 20th March 2025. A well-dressed middle-aged man sits aboard a Stockholm metro train carriage, taking the relatively short journey from his 11th floor penthouse apartment over to AIK Fotboll’s newly renovated Karlberg IP training ground for what will be his first training session since being eliminated from the Champions League 2nd Round Knockout Playoff at the hands of Brighton & Hove Albion. “Obviously the boys are disappointed” AIK Manager Patrik Maddsson thinks to himself, “but look how far we have come; back-to-back league titles; wins over Man Utd and AC Milan in the Champions League; the first Swedish club to qualify from the group stages in 30 years….“ He opens his newspaper to reveal a 4-page segment on one player and one player alone. “The future of Swedish Football“; “Watch out Isak“; “If Zlatan is God, here is the Messiah“. Some big headlines, who writes this stuff? Nonetheless, one cannot shy away from what 17-year-old Jonah Kusi-Asare achieved last season, Allsvenskan Top Scorer as well as finding the net against the likes of Barcelona, Dortmund, Man Utd, AC Milan and Bayer Leverkusen..the cat is well and truly out of the bag, it won’t be long before clubs come calling… He turns the page, and his mix of pride and apprehension are reaffirmed instantaneously with a clear and simple headline: “The “Swedish Benteke” – what the hell does that mean?!” Regardless, Jonah has officially been thrust among the most exciting talents in Europe – listed as the 8th best wonderkid in world football keeping company with the likes of Semih Kilicsoy, Lamine Yamal, Mathys Tel and Endrick; “Gonna be some carnage when the European transfer window opens” predicts Maddsson, “let’s just hope his mum hides his passport…” Welcome back to Allsvenskan or Nothing!!! You are here for the 5th installment of this FM24 blog series, which means if you have missed or cannot remember any of the previous episodes then it might be worth jumping back here and catching up! Otherwise we crack on with what will be a full overview of Season 3 at the helm of AIK Fotboll as we look to resurrect Swedish football by making AIK the dominant force of the Allsvenskan, not to mention challenging in Europe and overall, raising the profile and standings of Swedish football back to where it once sat many many years ago. When we last left off, we had just won our second consecutive league title as well as mounted quite a successful Champions League campaign which saw us advance from the new CL League Stage only to be knocked out by Brighton, so hopefully we can do one better this time with a few squad additions and now that we are another year older and wiser. Project Football 👷 Before we start, let’s talk about the project. As mentioned repeatedly, while this save is about succeeding at club level with AIK (and hopefully later at International level with Sweden) – our main aim is to elevate Swedish football through (1) Off-field Infrastructure & Facilities investment, (2) On-field performance and coefficient ranking/progression and (3) homegrown Player Development & Production. (1) Infrastructure & Facilities Investment 🛠️ It’s quite simple. You need to spend money to make money. Thankfully we have been highly successful in this area, not so much through our league titles (which earn us around €3m in prize money), but more so in our Champions League qualification and TV money which brings in around €15m to €20m in addition to the ~€2.8m one receives everytime you win a Champions League fixture. By the end of that run and our eventual exit at the hands of Brighton, our Bank Balance has increased from <€6m in Season 1 to over €40m in Season 3, while our Transfer Budget has also increased dramatically off the back of this from just over €1m in Season 1 to over €14m in Season 3. As you can see, over the past 3 seasons we have managed to bring our Youth Facilities from Good to Great, our Academy Coaching from Good to Great and our Youth Recruitment from Good to Exceptional – mainly through a combination of reinvesting revenue generated through our European performances as well as being a general thorn in the side of our board accordingly. (2) Coefficient Ranking & Progression 📈 Another essential focus area in terms of measuring success of this project is how we manage to elevate Swedish football as a whole, and until we manage to oust Janne Andersen from the international team setup, we will have to do this through our club efforts at AIK Football – namely trying to raise the club’s reputation through our domestic and continental exploits, and in turn raising the profile of the Swedish League accordingly. After two seasons we are definitely making some clear progress – moving up 267 places to 107th in the World Club rankings, while driving the Allsvenskan from 24th to 20th in the club league rankings and raising Sweden from 23rd to 20th in the Club Coefficients. (3) Player Development & Production ⚽ Progress has not been instant in terms of Swedish Wonderkid production, however we have seen two serious contenders come through in the past couple of intakes that are worth telling you about, the latter of whom is quite simply the best newgen I have produced in Football Manager for years. Robin Edin-Persson ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Edin-Persson came through in our first intake with good physicals and goalscoring attributes for a wide-forward not to mention exceptional flair and determination; as he is right-footed, we began instantly training him as an Inverted-Winger Left and at 17 he has since made his first team debut and scored his first ever goal for the club. Alex Almqvist ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Almqvist came through in our most recent Youth Intake, and the moment I laid eyes on him I knew we had our first true wonderkid on our hands – in fact he is the best newgen I have had in an FM Youth Intake for years. At just 16 he is already borderline first-team material – so much so that he scored on his debut in the Swedish Cup (albeit against inferior opposition) Season 3 🚀 With a much heftier transfer budget, we bolster our Season 3 squad with no fewer than 7 signings, all the while trying to lean towards Swedish/Scandinavian players where possible as well as trying to unearth bargain signings throughout; with Oscar Højlund permanently returned to Denmark, we replace him with not one but two talented midfielders in the form of Aleksander Andresen (Stabaek – €2.7m) and Ísak Bergmann Jóhannesson (F.C. København – Loan). On the right-hand side of midfield, we add clear quality and an upgrade in the form of Noah Jean Holm (Rosenborg – €2.5m), while Bilal Hussein returns to AIK from Hertha Berlin for €700k to be a backup versatile DM/MC. Finally we bolster our defence with not one, not two but three new additions in the form of Valgeir Fridriksson (Fiorentina – Loan), Coli Saco (Napoli – €50k BARGAIN thanks to @Shrewnaldo but needs to be retrained as a CB) and the cherry on the cake, highly experienced Swedish international left-back Ludwig Augustinsson who arrives from Sevilla for a record €6.5m fee. The league started very well for us which you would have to expect given our squad depth and quality, but still – 16 games in and we were fairly dominant, only losing one game unexpectedly to IFK Varnamo and as we hit the halfway point we found ourselves two points clear of Hammarby in 2nd place. By this point Jonah has scored 10 goals in 16 games and is going from strength to strength at the Friends Arena 🔥. It’s also at this point a couple of things happened: 1. We received two offers that we couldn’t really refuse for Erik Otieno (LWB) and Anton Salétros (MC) – both €2.5m bids from Cosenza and Middlebrough respectively, so we were forced to enter the market for replacements which we signed in the form of Isak Määttä ( Groningen – €2.5m) and Yasin Ayari (Brighton – Loan), the latter of whom joins his brother Taha as part of our midfield selection quartet. 2. We signed a long-term central defensive target in the form of Atalanta’s Noah Eile (€2m), for whom we have waited 8 months for his loan spell to finish at Vicenza before being able to complete the transfer – he will become our first-choice right-sided centre-back alongside Anes Cardaklija (for whom we have received multiple bids from Juventus and Lazio since signing him for €500k last season), giving us an excellent young pair of Swedish defenders in the middle of our back line for years to come. 3. Jonah’s ridiculous form has finally been noticed on the big stage as we receive bids from Liverpool, Arsenal, Dortmund, Milan, Inter, Bayern, Man Utd and PSG to name a few! All are flatly rejected (the highest was ~€3m which is pathetic), and although he is slightly unsettled for a while, we manage to hoodwink him into extending his contract and most importantly, with NO RELEASE CLAUSE 🥳. We endure a couple of draws during this slightly unsettled period, but it doesn’t take long for our squad to gel again aided by the glorious sight of both Ayari brothers not only starting in midfield for AIK but also both getting on the scoresheet in the same game, a 4-0 drubbing of rivals Djurgardens IF 😎. Ultimately we end up being too strong for Hammarby, and with three games to spare we are confirmed as Allsvenskan winners for a third consecutive season – AIK ARE CHAMPIONS AGAIN!! 🏆🏆🏆 On to Champions League matters … 🇪🇺 After being gloriously drawn against our namesake & champions of Greece AEK in our first UECL qualifier (and comfortably beating them 8-1 over both legs), we then overcame Bulgarian champions CSKA Sofia and Serbian champions FC Partizan to take a place in the Champions League Group Stage for the second year in a row. We were given what I had thought to be a relatively kind set of league fixtures, with very winnable ties against the likes of Sparta Prague, Rangers and Union Berlin, not to mention exciting fixtures against Inter Milan & Ajax at home, my own beloved Newcastle at home and a trip away to 14-time champions Real Madrid at the Bernabeu…lowly AIK on tour or what!! We unexpectedly suffered a 2-0 defeat at home to Sparta Prague before going on to beat Rangers 2-0 at Ibrox; we then got trounced 4-1 at home to Inter Milan and Marcus Thuram, which must have kicked some life into our lads as we proceeded to absolutely batter Bayer Leverkusen 5-0 to keep our qualification hopes alive – again similar to last season (and somewhat inexplicably), our away form is far better than our home form in Europe and we were unlucky not to take all 3 points from Union Berlin who scored a 94th minute equaliser to share the spoils. That meant after 5 games, we found ourselves 19th out of the 24 teams who qualify from the CL group stage – not bad, but a few tough games ahead of us… Just as we were gearing up to welcome the giants of Newcastle to Stockholm, this popped up in our inbox..a sign perhaps? AIK vs Newcastle United, Champions League Group Stage, 10/12/2025 For some reason the most random of caretaker managers Chris Moore has Newcastle lining out in a 4-4-2, a very different looking squad despite being just three seasons deep in a world…

Allsvenskan or Nothing: AIK Fotboll (Ep. 3)
Stockholm, Sweden – Thursday 1st February 2024. It’s the first day of pre-season for Swedish football clubs including league champions AIK Fotboll, whose manager Patrik Maddsson has just risen at dawn for his daily 10k run along the Söderström river with a deep sense of apprehension and pensiveness as he attempts to separate last season’s success with the challenge of the upcoming new season and the prospect of Champions League qualification if they can catch a break in the qualifying rounds. “The transfer window officially opens in two weeks and still no sign of the €2m prize money being spent – Per Nilsson assures me they are pursuing some of our identified targets but we need to get these over the line fast before others nip in and hijack a deal…damn the timing of these Champions League qualifiers as well, we’ll have half our league season done by the time we know who we’ll face and be able to reap any potential financial reward and that’s assuming we manage to overcome three two-legged qualifiers. If we can at least nab a Centre-Half and a versatile forward I’ll be happy…” His Apple watch vibrates and it’s an early morning message from U19 Manager Steve Nilsson.. “F*ck it, no more U19s football for him. 16 or not, it’s time…” Hello and welcome back! A slightly lengthy gap between blog posts for this series largely driven by Christmas and family events, however that’s no excuse and this save is very much still the mainstay of FM24 as we embark on Season 2 and a shot at Champions League football for AIK for the first time in 25 years. The timing of the Swedish League (April to November) means that we will be halfway through the season before the UCL qualifiers take place, so for now our focus is on adding quality to the squad which won us the league last season in order to handle the increased fixture schedule as well as defend the Allsvenskan league title. We mentioned our first target being a Centre-Back, mainly deviating from the repeat poor training performances and overall decline in ability of Club Captain Alexander Milošević. With our mission to produce/recruit and develop as many young Swedish players as possible in this save, we quickly identified and secured what could potentially be our first-choice centre-half for years to come. Welcome to AIK Anes Cardaklija who signs on a 4-year deal from GAIS for a €500k transfer fee. We then went on the hunt for a wide-forward to fill our Inside Forward (Left) position which was vacated by the departure of Bersant Celina who returned to home club Dijon following his loan spell. We tried to focus solely on Swedish players but in the absence of any real available quality, the standout option was Danish former FM wonderkid Jeppe Okkels who is a bargain €375k signing from Elfsborg. Our final permanent signing is significant given that we have European football to contend with this season. Defensive Midfield is a really hard position to fill at this level, particularly if limiting oneself to Swedish/Scandinavian players – having struggled to identify a suitable target, we came across an excellent signing in Charles, a Brazilian DM plying his trade at FC Midtjylland who for some reason were happy to let him go for just €500k and he should immediately become first-choice as our #6 this season with excellent all round midfield and defensive attributes for this level and the type of quality we will need to escape the Champions League qualifying rounds. Having already extended Oscar Højlund‘s loan from FC Kobenhavn (who you may remember absolutely banged as one of our double mezzalas last season), we also add youngsters Anders Hartveit Ryste on loan from Odds BK and Isak Brusberg on loan from BK Hacken, and suddenly our squad is looking mega healthy going into our second season at the helm of AIK Fotboll. Season 2 With the Swedish league starting in April, we knew that we would have roughly half our season completed before the Champions League Qualifiers commence, a long time to wait before even finding out who our first opponents would be in the Second Qualifying Round meaning we will have to overcome 3 clubs over 6 legs to gain a place in the Group Stages (or should I say the new 36-team Champions League League Stage 🙄). Being able to solely focus on domestic matters didn’t prove to be a bad thing though, by the time we reached July we found ourselves unbeaten in 16 league games, with 14 wins and our star boy Jonah racking up 14 goals to put us 7 points clear at the top of the league. I know I’ve said it plenty of times on the 5 Star Potential podcast by now, but Jonah Kusi-Asare is easily my favourite wonderkid of FM24 so far – just 15 when we started the save, and now at 16 already top scorer in the league and (spoiler alert) will go on to attract interest from Arsenal, Man Utd and Tottenham before the season is out. At 6’5″ with great physicals and ever-increasing technical and goal-scoring attributes, it’s little surprise that he is already linked with a real-life move to Bayern Munich despite having not even scored at senior level at the time of writing. Champions League Qualification Our first opponents as AIK look to reach the Champions League Group Stage for the first time since 1999? Champions of Azerbaijan Qarabağ FK, and safe to say it was an absolute two-legged belter… An 8-5 aggregate win (with two goals from our wonderboy) sent us through to the Third Qualifying Round, where we then welcomed the Champions of Cyprus Omonoia Nicosia, and despite Neil Lennon’s disastrous spell there as manager a few years back, they put up one hell of a fight and only a Ryste goal in the 2nd leg 2nd half separated both sides to see us advance to the final playoff round. Two legs away from history, a chance to compete with the biggest clubs in Europe in just our second season at lowly AIK of Sweden. Dreams of trips to the Camp Nou, San Siro, Parc Des Princes, Anfield and the Westfalenstadion are on everyone’s minds as we gear up for our final two-legged clash and this time a trip to Bern where we face Swiss Champions Young Boys. This is indeed a test… WE’VE DONE IT!!!! CHAMPIONS LEAGUE HERE WE COME!! Three goals over two legs from the boy Jonah give us a 5-3 aggregate victory to guarantee our place in the Champions League proper, and AIK fans are euphoric at the prospect of competing with Europe’s elite once again. There is absolutely no time to wait as we are swiftly presented with our League Stage fixtures, and with us being placed in Pot 4 of the draw, as someone once famously said – SH*T’S ABOUT TO GET REAL UP IN HERE!!! Did I Stutter? In and around all of these Champions League shenanigans, we began to slightly stutter in the league drawing 4 games in a row and breaking our unbeaten run with a 1-0 defeat away to rivals Hammarby. By October and with 6 games remaining, our lead was cut to just 3 points (albeit with a couple of games in hand) and despite Jonah’s goal exploits in the qualifiers, he only picked up 2 goals in 8 games as we geared up for our crucial opening CL game away to Celtic. We managed to hold Brendan Rodgers side to a 0-0 draw which felt great until we lost 2-0 away to Fenerbahçe in Turkey, and this combined with a couple of narrow 1-0 wins and another draw in the league in between meant we weren’t exactly in the best of form as we prepared for arguably the biggest fixture in recent AIK Fotboll history; welcoming Manchester United to the Friends Arena in Stockholm, after they finished 4th in the Premier League last season behind Man City, Arsenal and Chelsea 🙃. When Jonah opened the scoring on 15 minutes, all hell broke loose as a famous victory over Man Utd began to materialise in front of us. That lasted 13 minutes before Antony equalised for Man Utd, and we went in 1-1 at half-time knowing that we had a rare opportunity to inflict one of the biggest scalpings in Champions League history. Man Utd came at us hard, peppering our goal and looking likeliest to score first and crush our dreams of a famous victory..that was until our man Anton Salétros stood up over a 51st minute free-kick and did this: Absolute ecstacy for the home fans as a famous 2-1 win is recorded into our history books!! (not to mention a glorious €2.3m for the victory – more of the same please 🤌). Speaking of ecstacy….. We successfully defend the Allsvenskan title to give us back-to-back league titles, with Jonah finishing on top of the goalscorer charts with 20 goals along with a 7.37 rating, and even more positively we manage to lock him down to an extended contract with NO RELEASE CLAUSE 🥳. It feels strange that we have won the league but still have a bunch of Champions League games to play, such is life finishing the domestic campaign in November. We followed up that victory over Man Utd with a 2-2 draw away to Bayer Leverkusen, before beating Sturm Graz 1-0 at home; our last game of 2024 was another home fixture against AC Milan who still boast the likes of Rafael Leao, Theo Hernandez, Christian Pulisic and Olivier Giroud, and the game was locked in a 0-0 stalemate until the 88th minute before that man Jonah Kusi-Asare decided to do this while we were live streaming over on Twitch: We’ve slayed Man Utd and AC Milan, held Celtic and Leverkusen to a draw and with two games remaining (only Barcelona and Dortmund sure), we have a very realistic chance of qualification to the Champions League Knockout Round for the first time in the club’s history. Did someone say all aboard for a trip to Barcelona? ✈️✈️ We might have Jonah, but Barcelona have arguably the best wonderkid in FM24 in Lamine Yamal who bags a hat-trick as Xavi’s side hit us for six, meaning we will miss out on a Top 8 finish and therefore need a positive result at home to Dortmund in order to guarantee a place in the Champions League Knockout Playoff Round… AND THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT THEY DID 😎😎. A brace from Jonah overturns a 2-0 deficit to earn us a point and secure a 16th place finish in the league stage, finishing ahead of the likes of Arsenal, Roma, Ajax and Man Utd to name a few…suddenly, a long long league season which has pretty much ran from February to February has culminated in the biggest game in the club’s history as we look to progress to the latter rounds of the Champions League. Our opponents? AIK vs Brighton, Champions League Knockout Playoff Round High-flying Brighton, who finished 5th last season under Roberto De Zerbi to avail of an extra CL place in the Premier League are drawn as our playoff round opponents, a side containing FM24 superstars Evan Ferguson and Karou Mitoma as well as newer signings Kang-In Lee and wonderkid Semih Kılıçsoy. Even more alarmingly, in the meantime we had lost our own star midfielder Oscar Hojlund who opted to return to parent club FC Kobenhavn (replacing him with @FridayNightFM‘s 18-year-old Famalicão youngster Gustavo Sa), yet another symptom of the…
