Skager thus comes closest to Kalmar HC, where he scored 115 points in 166 matches.
However, the end of the club was noticed and led to headlines he himself did not like.
– I want to take the opportunity to apologize to Kalmar for how it turned out. I actually got a lump in my stomach when the magazine wrote as they did. Even if I don’t think I did something wrong, I felt bad about how the situation was produced, he tells Smålänningen.
Skager emphasizes that he does not have any bitterness against Kalmar even though they did not agree on a new agreement – and that he liked very well there.
When the opportunity appeared to become a supporter player in Troja, it felt like the right step.
In sport, he hopes to be able to contribute offensively. The freer role in Troja compared to Kalmar fits his playing style better.
In the preseason he has already presented himself in the goal protocol.
The goal is clear: Troja should stay in Allsvenskan. A playoffs would be a bonus, but above all it is about establishing the club at the next level.
– The most important thing is to play my own game, to give a hundred each match and create chances. Then I take it from there, says Skager.
