Kim Källström (Swedish pronunciation: [kɪm ˈɕɛl.ˈstrœm]; born 24 August 1982 in Sandviken) is a Swedish footballer who plays as a midfielder for Spartak Moscow and Sweden national football team.

Early life

Källström was born in Sandviken 24 August 1982 to footballer Mikael and Ann Källström. In 1986 he joined the local Sandvikens IF football team. In 1989 the family moved to Partille outside Gothenburg and Källström started to play in Partille IF.

Club career

Early career

Källström's first professional club in Sweden was BK Häcken from Gothenburg but his big breakthrough in Sweden came when he moved to Djurgårdens IF in 2002, where he won the Swedish Allsvenskan in 2002 and 2003 and the national cup tournament Svenska Cupen in 2002. Scored twice in the UEFA Cup against Shamrock Rovers and FC Copenhagen. During the 2002 season, he was Djurgården's overall and league top scorer.

He was a part of the young Djurgården epoque in Swedish football during the early 2000s (decade) together with Andreas Isaksson, Johan Elmander, Louay Chanko, Tobias Hysén, and Mikael Dorsin.

FC Spartak Moscow

On 28 July 2012 it was announced that Kim signed with FC Spartak Moscow for €3 million and €600,000 variables.

International career

Källström made his international debut in 2001 against Finland. He made the Swedish squad for the Euro 2004, 2006 World Cup, Euro 2008 and Euro 2012 tournaments. He also scored the 1–0 goal in the 3–2 win over the Netherlands to take Sweden to the UEFA Euro 2012.

In the group qualification match against Germany, Kim was substituted in at the start of the second half and assisted 3 of 4 goals in an incredible comeback from 4–0 disadvantage in the 55th minute to 4–4 at the end of the game.
