Playing career

Club

After playing for a local club, he joined Djurgårdens IF from Stockholm. He made his debut in the senior team in the 1984 season.[4] He was the Swedish football Division 2 top scorer in 1987.[5] In 1988, he was part of Djurgården's Swedish Championship silver medal team and in 1989, he played in the 1989 Svenska Cupen Final loss against Malmö FF.

In 1989, he joined English club Everton F.C. before returning to Sweden and IFK Göteborg in 1990 with which he won five Swedish Championships. He then moved to Swiss club Lausanne Sports before rejoining his old club Djurgårdens IF in 2000, winning another Championship in 2002 before retiring.

International

Rehn, with Finnish parents, received a call-up for the Sweden national under-18 football team but was ineligible to play until 1984 when he acquired Swedish citizenship.[5] In total, he made eight U18 appearances (one goal) and 17 U21 appearances (three goals).[5]

Rehn made his international debut in a 1988 4–1 friendly win against East Germany national football team, a match in which he also scored his first international goal in the 58th minute.[2] He played two matches in the 1988 Summer Olympics for Sweden. He was part of the UEFA Euro 1992 squad, but did not play.

He was part of the third-place Swedish squad at the 1994 FIFA World Cup.

Management career

After his retirement, he was then part of Djurgården's coaching staff before taking the job as manager of his other previous Swedish club IFK Göteborg for the 2007 season as a joint manager with Jonas Olsson. He left in 2010. Between 2011 and 2013, he was head coach for Jitex BK, and in 2014 he joined Kopparbergs/Göteborg FC as head coach.
