Pontus Wernbloom was born in 1986, on June 25, in a place called Gothenburg-Bohus. This is the famous Swedish midfielder who plays for CSKA Moscow and the national Swedish team. There are a lot of interesting facts about this athlete, and they should be discussed.
Carier start
Pontus Wernblum began with the youth clubs of his hometown. There he studied football, tried himself as an athlete. And then, at the age of 18, he moved to Gothenburg, a titled and rather famous club. There, he immediately became a member of the youth team and throughout the year performed in its framework.
Soon the footballer was declared in the main team. The prerequisite was that Hokan Mild decided to end his career and, accordingly, left the club. So the place went to Pontus. However, the whole subsequent season, he fought for playing time. The team changed the style of their game. When striker Marcus Berg left, Wernbloom was put in the position of striker, and the central one.
Career Development: Netherlands
In April 2009, Pontus Wernbloom entered into an agreement with a Dutch club such as A3. For his transfer, the team representatives paid an amount of 2.5 million euros. In the major league, the football player made his debut in August of that year. The first match was against the Heracles team. Then Pontus was released to replace. At the 54th minute, he entered the field instead of Niklas Moysander. True, the first goal was not given to him immediately. He rolled the ball into the opponents' goal only in 2010, on February 20. His club then played against VVV-Venlo.
In “A3” he played three seasons - from 2009 to 2012. For all this time, the footballer entered the field 67 times and scored 7 goals.
Moving to Moscow
At the beginning of 2012, Pontus Wernblum moved to Russia. CSKA - this is what club invited the Swede to play for their composition. They bought the player for three million euros, and it was decided to conclude a contract for 4.5 years.
His debut took place on February 21. It was a very important match of the Champions League - then the Muscovites played with a European football star, with Real Madrid. It was Pontus that the “army men" owed that minimal draw. The Swede scored a goal in the 93rd minute, which helped out his new team.
And on March 3, he first entered the field as part of the Premier League. Then the Swede was released in the starting lineup, and he played the whole match. I must say that Wernbloom, it was decided to immediately put in the main team. Moreover, from almost the first meetings he took the position of leader in the team. True, in the first season, the young man played quite tough. He in 11 games received as many as 8 “mustard plasters”! Although, I must say, he was never removed from the field.
Pontus has repeatedly brought victory to his team. For example, on October 28, he scored a decisive goal against Terek, then he rolled the ball into Lokomotiv, and in 2013 he rescued the club by ramming Wings of the Soviets. It is a pity that in the final game of the Cup of Russia, which was held against “Anji”, Pontus was removed from the field. However, then CSKA managed to snatch its victory.
