Today, Damon published the following statement:

Time to say hej då and thank you to @skoftebynfutsal, the players, and my staff.
I leave very happy with the first half of the season, the club’s best-ever start (7W, 1D, 2L), and proud of the work we did.
In the short time there I learnt some very valuable lessons and I leave a very different coach and person and ready for the next challenge.
It was an honour to work in a well ran club with some top players. They know my inbox is always open if they need anything and I’ll always be a fan.
Good luck for the rest of the season. I’ll share my next destination soon! Everything happens for a reason.
Vi är borgens charmörer!
