AIK and Modo pursue Marcus Karlberg

Marcus Karlberg is weighing options after Leksand's relegation from the SHL. Reports indicate interest from AIK and Modo in the 26-year-old forward.

Marcus Karlberg has been loyal to Leksand for most of his career. He scored 13 goals two seasons ago but endured a difficult year after the team's drop to Hockeyallsvenskan. Agent Marcus Isaksson confirmed ongoing talks with clubs including AIK and Modo. He also noted European options remain open. Isaksson criticized Leksand's coaching staff, stating Karlberg was handled poorly and not utilized effectively despite recovering from an early injury. AIK has already added Tyler Vesel and Tim Theocharidis to strengthen its roster for a promotion push. A move to Modo would place Karlberg under his father Mikael Karlberg as head coach. The player is taking time to evaluate his next step.
