Bjorn Hamberg will join up with Billy Reid (L), boss Graham Potter (C) and Kyle Macaulay on the Swansea staff

New Swansea City manager Graham Potter has added Bjorn Hamberg to his coaching staff.

Hamberg was Potter's assistant coach and video analyst at Ostersunds FK.

Swansea have confirmed Hamberg will leave for the Liberty Stadium following talks last weekend.

"I know Bjorn very well as we've worked successfully together for the last six or seven years at Ostersund," said Potter.

"He will work with the existing analysis department to steer it towards helping the team become successful."

Potter was announced as Swansea manager earlier this month, with Ostersund assistant Billy Reid and recruitment analyst Kyle Macaulay also named as part of his backroom team.

The 43-year-old, who replaced Carlos Carvalhal as Swans boss, had meetings with the club's majority shareholders - Steve Kaplan and Jason Levien - in Washington, USA, last week.
