“Erick has been a standout player in his position in recent years in Sweden. Now there is an opportunity for him to join us. Erick is a player who fits our philosophy perfectly. He is fast, aggressive and always plays with intensity,” a statement from the club’s Sporting Director Samuel Cárdenas on their official website stated.

He adds; “Thanks to his qualities on the ball and his consistent play with both feet, he will be an option for both sides as a shuttle player in our system. We are looking forward to seeing Erick in our jersey because he is eager to fight for more titles and prove his worth on the European arena.”

The move brings to an end widespread speculation over the left back’s future, with several European clubs having been on his radar before he settled on a move to Poland.
