Career
Bergqvist moved with his family from Sweden to England as a child. There he began playing football and ran for the youth teams of Reading FC and the Queens Park Rangers before joining Aldershot Town . He made his first steps in the adult field as a loaner with Thatcham Town and Dorchester Town in non-league football , in 2011 he made his debut for Aldershot Town in English professional football. Ultimately, however, he did not prevail in the fourth-rate Football League Two club and was awarded again in succession to the non-football league teams Farnborough Town , Basingstoke Town and Staines Town .
In 2013 Bergqvist left Aldershot Town and joined league rivals Exeter City , who loaned him to non-league football a few days after signing Welling United . The loan ended prematurely in February 2014 after 20 league games and two championship goals when the player returned to Sweden and signed a two-year contract with the then second division side Östersunds FK .
At his new club, Bergqvist was one of the regulars under coach Graham Potter right away and played more than two-thirds of the season's games in the Superettan . At the end of the second division season in 2015 , he rose with the team for the first time in the club's history to the Allsvenskan , where they established themselves in the middle of the table. In May 2017, he moved into the final of the Swedish Football Cup with the club . With a 4-1 win over IFK Norrköping with goals from Samuel Mensah , Hosam Aiesh , Alhaji Gero and Saman Ghoddos when Linus Wahlqvist conceded , he won the title with which the club qualified for the European Cup for the first time . In the 2017/18 UEFA Europa League , the team then reached the group stage after successes over Galatasaray Istanbul , CS Fola Esch and PAOK Thessaloniki .
