Umeå benchsitters joins Jitex
Umeå's back-up goalie Johanna Baecklund and midfielder/forward Johanna Andersson, both with very little time on the field for Umeå last season, has decided to join relegated Jitex in the 1st division. Both have had the option to join Damallsvenskan sides, but feels that it will be better to play for a winning team in the 1st division than for a relegation struggler in Damallsvenskan. Jitex' management has made it clear that they are aiming for a speedy return to the top flight.

The SEK 50,000 they demands from Qbik was met with dropped jaws: "We want her to come to us, but this is a grotesque amount of money". Jitex on their side says the sum Qbik offered wasn't even worth discussing. They add that they have had inquieries about almost all their players with long-time contracts and can't let Björk go without due compensation.
