Expressen already revealed on December 9 that Malmö FF’s assistant coach Martin Falk was IFK Norrköping’s main track in the coach hunt after Andreas Alm was fired.
During the week, the parties have negotiated intensively, above all about the financial terms, with the hope of reaching an agreement.
According to information to Expressen, Falk and Norrköping have agreed on a contract. The plan is for him to sign the contract in the next few days, and for IFK to present him as the new head coach before the end of the week.
Falk has been part of Henrik Rydström’s management staff since the summer of 2023 and before that he worked in AIK and Sandviken. In “Peking”, Falk will have Henric Pekkala as assistant coach, something that Expressen told about earlier.
The former assistant coach, Azrudin Valentic, is ready for St Louis City SC where he will work under Olof Mellberg, according to information to Expressen.
