Daniel Tjernström (born February 19, 1974 in Karlskoga ) is a former Swedish football player . With over 200 first division games for AIK , he is one of the 20 players with the most appearances for the club in the Allsvenskan . In total, he has played over 300 first division games.

Career

Tjernström started playing football at Bråtens IK before moving to KB Karlskoga's youth department in 1988 . In 1990 he made his debut in the men's team of the third division and placed himself regularly with the team in the midfield of the league.

In 1993 Tjernström moved to Degerfors IF in Allsvenskan . In the summer of 1993 he won the Svenska Cup with the club through a 3-0 win over Landskrona BoIS . Nevertheless, the league only succeeded in relegation through two wins over IFK Hässleholm in relegation. After three years he left DIF .

Tjernström's new employer was the league rival Örebro SK in spring 1995 . In his second year at the club he was appointed to the Swedish national team for the first time . As part of the King's Cup , he made his debut on February 9, 1997 in the 2-0 victory over Romania in the national selection. He was used three times during the tournament. A year later he was called again.

In 1999 Tjernström moved again within the Allsvenskan. He signed a contract with the reigning master AIK . Here, too, he was able to establish himself as a regular player and won the Swedish Cup with the club in the summer. In November he was called up for the fifth and final time for the national team. In the 2004 season he was slowed down by injuries and only played twelve games this season. At the end of the season AIK was relegated, but Tjernström remained loyal to the club and was able to celebrate the direct promotion. After recovering, he almost never missed a game as team captain .

In the course of the 2008 season Tjernström temporarily lost his captaincy to Nils-Eric Johansson , but was still part of the regular team for much of the season. Re-appointed team captain, he contributed to winning the Lennart Johansson Cup in 26 league games in the following season . He scored the decisive goal for the 2-1 win against direct rivals IFK Göteborg in the 85th minute of the last match day , when coach Mikael Stahre had brought him into the game eight minutes earlier as a substitute for Bojan Ðordic . In the cup final against the same club a week later, he was also substituted on shortly before the end and thus contributed to the first double win in the club's history. While the club slipped into the relegation battle in the following season and after Mikael Stahres left for Greece with Björn Wesström and Alex Miller, two other coaches managed the team, Tjernström had to fight repeatedly with minor injuries. Nevertheless, after the re-membership of the first division for the 2011 season , the club extended the contract by one year. In addition, the Elitdomareklubben i fotboll honored him for his commitment to strengthening the role of referee alongside Conny Karlsson .
