Graham Potter Signals Interest in Sweden Vacancy After Tomasson Is Sacked

The former Ostersund coach says he would consider the post as Sweden scramble for a replacement.

Overview

  • The Swedish FA dismissed Jon Dahl Tomasson after one point from four World Cup qualifiers left Sweden bottom of Group B.
  • Potter, sacked by West Ham in September, told Swedish outlet Fotbollskanalen the national-team role would be a "fantastic" opportunity and that he is open to it.
  • He said he has not been contacted by the federation and noted that salary would not determine his decision.
  • Potter cited deep ties to Sweden, including seven years at Ostersund, a home in the country and two children born there.
  • Qualification now likely hinges on playoff pathways from Nations League seeding, adding urgency to the appointment, while some outlets report he is a leading target, which has not been confirmed.
