Johan Svantesson (born 13 September 1992) is a Swedish former professional footballer.[3]
Svantesson started his footballing career in Levene/Skogslund IF and Vara SK, two football clubs based in Vara, Sweden, the latter competing in Division 4.[4] In December 2011 he was signed to Gefle IF, moving to Gävle after the new year.[5][6]
He suffered two consecutive injuries during the 2012 season, with a sprain in April followed by a rough tackle a few months later. These injuries caused long-term pain, leaving him benched for the 2013 season[3] and eventually resulting in him terminating his contract and leaving professional football in September 2013.[7][4]
After leaving professional football he began studying economics in Uppsala. He continued playing football outside the elite scene, playing in IF VP Uppsala in 2015[3] and Melbourne University SC in 2016 during an exchange year in Melbourne.[2] After returning to Sweden he moved to Stockholm, where he joined the Division 4 team Reymersholms IK and played from 2017 until 2021, the year where Reyersholm was promoted to Division 3.[8][3]
Svantesson currently works at Norron Asset Management, where he is the portfolio manager of the Sustainable Equity strategy.[9]
