Örebro municipality helped KIF Örebro adjust its 2023 accounts to secure the 2025 elite license. An expert assesses the measures as possibly constituting several crimes.
Örebro municipality assisted KIF Örebro in concealing debts in the 2023 annual report. This is evident from emails now published by Nerikes Allehanda.
P4 Örebro revealed the information on April 24. The club needed to show positive equity to obtain the elite license for 2025.
Accounting expert Lars Schjölin states that the first step is a possible bookkeeping offense, the second a violation of license rules in Swedish football and the third a grant offense against the municipality.
