Former Manchester United midfielder Juan Mata is being linked with a move to Sweden.

Mata is a free agent after leaving Vissel Kobe in Japan last month. Mata has a strong connection to Skåne. His wife Evelina Kamph is originally from Höllviken.

Asked about the prospect of signing the veteran, Malm FF chief Daniel Andersson told Fotbolkanalen: "I live in Höllviken, I know the family into which he is married quite a bit.

"It's clear we've joked about it at some point. What to say - Juan Mata is Juan Mata. But that is never realistic.

"I wouldn't say that. I wouldn't believe that, actually."
