Premier League duo Wolverhampton Wanderers and Sheffield United have been linked with a move for the promising teenager in the summer transfer window after impressing in his debut season in Sweden.
And he has picked up from where he left off last season, bagging three assists in four matches in the Svenska Cupen before sporting activities were suspended in Sweden.
