He played for the club between 1939 and 1950 when he went to Italy and Genoa 1893, unfortunately for Tapper he didn't succeed in Italy and when he came home to Sweden he wasn't allowed to play in Allsvenskan anymore due to the policy at the time. He is Malmö FFs second best goalscorer ever with 298 goals.

He later coached Lunds BK.[2]
