Columbus Crew's Henrik Rydstrom has been hired as the new head coach for Sweden's Hammarby Fotball, less than a month after being fired by the Crew. Rydstrom, along with assistant coach Theodor Olsson, have found new jobs in Sweden. Hammarby started its 2025-26 season in the Allsvenskan League 5-4-2, dropping its last three games before going on break for the FIFA World Cup. Rydstrom said via a press release from Hammarby, "It feels incredibly exciting. As a coach, Hammarby is an environment that I have been looking at for some time, and now that I get to be a part of it, it feels fantastic."
