Only 30 days and eight games of the new season were enough for Sead Hakšabanović to become a player who is talked about in European football circles. The Montenegrin representative shines in Norrkoping, the leader of the Swedish championship, he is by far the best football player in the league, so the first serious rumors about the interest of bigger clubs from stronger leagues are coming.
Werder and Roma are interested in Hakšabanović, who turned 21 years ago two and a half months ago, and the conditions under which he could leave Norčeping, while Club Brugge and Dinamo Zagreb are also mentioned.
Werder sees him as the successor to Miljot Rašica, the Kosovo national team player who will most likely leave Bremen, while Roma has been paying a lot of attention to young players in recent years... How did Hakšabanović gain his reputation?
He was in the best team of the Swedish championship six times in eight rounds, and he was declared the best player in June. From the position of winger, he scored three goals and six assists, he is by far the most productive player in the league. He also has the most successful dribbles, the most shots on goal.
Hakšabanović is playing his second season in Norrkoping, but he has gained a reputation in Sweden a long time ago. He made his debut in the first league competition when he was only 15 years old, becoming the youngest player in the history of the competition, when he made his first appearance in the Halmstad jersey.
At the age of just 18, as a great talent from the north of Europe, he arrived at West Ham for three million euros, with Slaven Bilić, then manager of the London club. In the first season, he made two appearances for the senior team, in the League and the FA Cup, but did not make his debut in the Premier League. It was obviously early for him...
He was loaned first to Malaga, then to Norrkoping, who bought his contract from the English club in April of this year. He likes Sweden, but with his performances last season, and especially at the beginning of the current one, he showed that he is now ready for the next step.
Hakšabanović made his debut for the national team of Montenegro in 2018, made eight appearances and scored one goal, in the last match against Belarus in November 2019.
