Excerpt: Per Tomas Brolin (born 29 November 1969 in Hudiksvall) is a Swedish former professional football player who had a successful period with A.C. Parma during the early nineties winning the 1992 Coppa Italia, the 1993 Cup Winners' Cup, the 1993 UEFA Super Cup and the 1995 UEFA Cup. Brolin also played for the Swedish national team, finishing third in the 1994 World Cup and was also a beaten semi finalist at the 1992 European championship as well as having competed in the 1990 World Cup. Although a class act in his youth, in 2007 he was voted in at Number 2 in The Times poll of the "50 Worst footballers (to grace the Premier League)," reflecting his dismal downturn in form after he signed for the English club Leeds United in 1995. His once glittering career never recovered after the transfer to Leeds United, and by the age of 29 he had retired from playing. Brolin's first professional match was for Nasvikens IK in 1984 at the age of 14 against Kilafors, and he went onto make 36 appearances for the fourth division club.

In 1986 Brolin enrolled at Fotbollsgymnasiet, the football academy in Sundsvall. He was subsequently signed by GIF Sundsvall, making his first team debut in 1987 against IF Elfsborg. After two seasons at Sundsvall Brolin moved to IFK Norrkoping. Brolin was signed by the Italian club, AC Parma, in 1990 just after Parma had been promoted to Serie A. He quickly formed an effective partnership at Parma with another player, Alessandro Melli, who, like Brolin was only 20 years old. Melli who wore the No.7 jersey was a box player, quick, nimble, good in the air, and lethal from six yards. Meanwhile, Brolin who wore No.11 was a midfielder. The partnership delivered 20 goals; 13 from Melli and 7 from Brolin. Parma finished in joint fifth place in their first season in Serie A. It was the first time that the team qualified for the Europe in t
