He remained to PSV till summer 2015 (winning the championship in the 2014-15 season). Then he was transferred to Palermo, after his outstanding appearance in the European Championship U-21, where Sweden won the title. He played steadily for Palermo during a year and a half, till January 2017. Then he moved on loan to Genoa which activated its purchase option in summer. He is a lineup player with the Swedish national team.
