Lyngby Boldklub's coach has selected the squad for the season's first away game against OB. This comes after a transfer deadline day that brought both new arrivals and departures.
The club finds itself in a difficult position in the Superliga, occupying 11th place with just three points from six matches. They are yet to win a game this season, with a record of zero wins, three draws, and three losses. Their most recent match ended 1-1 against Odense on August 30th, fitting into a recent form of DLDDL over the last five games.
Who is in the squad for the away game?
The coach's squad selection follows a period of activity in the transfer window. The official squad for the match against OB is now set, reflecting the latest changes to the player pool. This includes the new signings presented just before the deadline, as well as the absence of players who have left the club.
Fans can always keep track of the full squad overview on our squad page. It is a squad that must try to turn around a difficult start to the season, where the team has scored seven goals but also conceded eleven, resulting in a goal difference of minus four.
What changes happened on transfer deadline day?
The transfer window closed on September 2nd with several significant moves for Lyngby Boldklub. Norwegian midfielder Fredrik Ulvestad arrived from the Polish club Pogoń Szczecin. At the same time, defender William Martin extended his contract with the club, now keeping him at Lyngby until the summer of 2030.
Another piece of news was that Julian Pauli was officially assigned the number 4 shirt. On the departure side, midfielder Jakob Bonde was sold to league rivals AC Horsens. These changes create a new starting point for the squad in the coming period.
What does Lyngby's upcoming schedule look like?
After the away game against OB, there is a break in the league before the next task. Lyngby Boldklub's next Superliga match is at home against Sønderjyske on September 13th. Sønderjyske sits just below Lyngby in 12th place in the standings, making it an important match in the lower part of the table.
The break gives the coaching staff an opportunity to integrate the new players and work on the tactical setup. The team is also dealing with an absence, as O. Snorre is currently sidelined with an injury. Information on injury status can be followed on our injuries page. The objective must be to find the first win of the season and start collecting points.
What does the league table mean for the rest of the autumn?
Twelve points behind league leaders FC Copenhagen means the title race is already a distant goal. The focus for the autumn must therefore be on stabilizing the team and working their way up from the relegation zone. The three points from the first six games highlight the need for improvement.
The new squad, including Fredrik Ulvestad and the contract-extended William Martin, must now show they can lift the team. It starts with the first away game, for which the squad has been carefully chosen after a hectic transfer period. The next opportunity for points is on September 13th at home against Sønderjyske.
