He was actually born in Uddevalla, but then raised in Lund.

Referring to the paragraph that describes his appearance: "black" and "Swedish" are neither exclusive nor comparable traits. This should be changed to either "black and caucasian" or "[whatever nationality his black parent is/was] and Swedish". Either way it isn't actually relevant to his resembling O.J. Simpson. (many black people, Swedish people and Swedish black people look nothing like him) Ideally, somebody should research the nationality of his black parent (I suspect this is, in fact, Swedish). In fact I have changed the above section, the fact that he looks like O.J. Simpson is enough to imply that he is dark skinned, his mixed parentage is not enough to say that he looks like O.J. Simpson, so there is no logic in that direction.

FWIW, I recall seeing an interview on Lilla Sportspegeln many years ago where he said his dad was from Venezuela.

[edit] London

I heard he lives in London nowadays, can anyone confirm this?

No but it's probably more likely he lives in Surrey or Essex, that's where all the footballers are. --JamesTheNumberless 12:24, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
