Defender Kenneth Rasmussen has brought an end to a decade’s service with Danish champions Brøndby IF by signing a two-and-a-half-year deal with Swedish side Helsingborgs IF.
Quality clubs
“I’m going from Denmark's best club to one of Sweden's better clubs,'' the player told Helsingborgs' official website.
Early debut
Rasmussen could make his debut as early as Monday against Landskrona BoIS following an injury to first-choice centre-back Jozo Matovacs.
A former striker
The 28-year-old, who had put pen to paper on a new three-year contract with Brøndby in May 2001, started his career as a striker and is renowned for his pace and ability to read the game. Helsingborgs currently lie in fifth place in the Swedish first division.
