  In May 2021 AFC Eskilstuna confirmed, that 25-year old had retired and would continue as a part of the technical staff as an individual coach. Beside that, he would also continue in his position as a youth coach, which he had been since 2017, after AFC United changed their name to AFC Eskilstuna.
