Lucas Ekeståhl Jonsson will not continue with Rögle next season despite two years remaining on his contract. Club officials confirmed the departure Monday as negotiations advance toward a return to his former team Björklöven.
Sport chief Hampus Sjöström stated that both sides agree Ekeståhl Jonsson will not play for Rögle in the 2026/27 season. The 30-year-old defenseman was absent from the team's first post-holiday training session and has long expressed interest in rejoining Björklöven, his original club now promoted to the SHL.
