Blackburn Rovers player will be ‘presented soon’ at another club after agreeing deal for transfer
On June 11th, Tipsbladet stated Blackburn Rovers have agreed to sell Leopold Wahlstedt to Danish side Aarhus Gymnastikforening, commonly known as AGF, for €1m.
It was also said the Championship side are waiting for the goalkeeper to make a decision on this move.
Tipsbladet’s claim is now relayed by Expressen, who then provide the latest on AGF’s pursuit of the Blackburn Rovers player.
The Sweden international has made a decision to leave Blackburn Rovers for AGF in the summer window.
It’s claimed a deal to take the 24-year-old to the Danish club has been sorted out after personal terms were agreed and also a fee with Blackburn Rovers. The report says he will ‘soon be presented’ as the new AGF player.
Wahlstedt joined Blackburn Rovers from Norwegian side Odds BK in August 2023. Prior to that, AGF and Brøndby IF tried to secure his services, but he favoured the English club.
He kept four clean sheets and conceded 42 goals in 25 games last season. After spending a year at Blackburn Rovers, the stopper has decided to leave them for AGF.

The Rovers winger only featured 18 times last season following a couple of frustrating hamstring injuries.
Hedges made his initial return in February but suffered a recurrence of the problem during a goalless draw against Southampton a couple of months later.
This time around, the Welshman has the benefit of pre-season fixtures to ease his way back into the swing of things.
“I want to play every minute of every game so it is really hard to say, ‘I am not fit’ or, ‘I don’t want to play this game’. At the end of the day, you want to give everything for the team and for yourself,” he told RoversTV.
“It will probably be managing expectations and knowing I won’t play every minute this season while I am still in the early stages of coming back.
