Erol Bekir — Biography

Erol Bekir, who used to be called Erol Bekirovski, was born on January 25, 1974. A former player turned coach of Turkish heritage, he has Macedonian roots and holds Swedish as well as Turkish citizenship.

His first club was Malmö FF, the team of his home city, yet he played mostly outside Sweden. His career took him to Germany with SV Waldhof Mannheim, to Switzerland with FC Thun, FC Lugano and BSC Young Boys, and to Italy with Reggiana.

Back in Sweden he joined IF Limhamn Bunkeflo, a lower-division side from Malmö, where he doubled as player and manager. By the close of 2009 he had retired from playing and worked only as manager. The two sides separated in August 2012, after the club said it was unable to match his level of ambition.
