Career
Taking the leap from junior team obscurity to becoming a star in Brann, he was later sold to IFK Göteborg. He spent three years at Valencia before moving to Venezia in Italy, where he was employed for just one season. Björklund joined Sunderland in January 2002 for £1.5million, but was unable to prevent them from being relegated in the following 2002-2003 season.
But his services were no longer required by manager Mick McCarthy and he joined Wolverhampton Wanderers, who had just been relegated from the Premier League.
Having finished his playing career, he now works as a scout for Valencia. He is mainly scouting the Nordic countries for players.
He also works for Swedish Canal+, covering Louisiana Liga football.
