Emil Hansson is set to join Real Zaragoza this summer as he continues to move around Europe after leaving Birmingham City in January.
Heraldo de Aragón report that the 28-year-old has an agreement in place with the Spanish side to join them.
Real Zaragoza move
The newspaper explains that after hints on Wednesday that the Spanish club would be providing transfer news soon, they followed that a day later by announcing a preliminary agreement with Emil Hansson.
The winger is available on a free transfer after leaving Birmingham and Real Zaragoza have moved to snap him up this week. His move is now pending a medical, which is set to take place in the coming hours.
The Spanish side have moved quickly to get the Norwegian as an alternative to Jastin, who has proven to be ‘unfeasible’ for them. He will sign a two-year deal with Zaragoza and become their ninth signing of the summer.
European trip
The impending move to Spain will be the latest in Europe for the former Birmingham City man. He is yet to find anywhere to call home during his career.
To date he has enjoyed spells in Sweden, Norway, the Netherlands, Germany and England. Now he is set to add Spain to his list.
He joined the Blues in 2024 in a €1.75m deal from Heracles Almelo. But he struggled to establish himself with the Championship side. He made just 24 appearances for Birmingham in two years, with two goals and two assists to his name. His time there also includes loan spells away at the likes of Blackpool.
Now he will be hoping to give his career the kickstart his career at Real Zaragoza. They’re seeking to climb back up the rankings in Spain following their relegation to third tier of Spanish football last season. Only a medical now stands in the way of the deal being completed.
