Club career

[edit]

Born in Solna, von Schlebrügge started off his career with AIK before moving to the United States to play collegiately for the Florida Atlantic Owls.[1] After graduating from Florida Atlantic University, he returned to Sweden to play for Brommapojkarna.[2] In 2002, he signed for the reigning Allsvenskan champions Hammarby IF.[3] After more than 100 Allsvenskan appearances for Hammarby, von Schlebrügge signed with the Jupiler Pro League club Anderlecht in January 2007.[4] He was signed by the Danish Superliga Brøndby IF in January 2008 from Anderlecht after having appeared in only eight league games for the Belgian club.[5]

After four years in Denmark, von Schlebrügge returned to Hammarby in 2012.[6] After two injury-plagued seasons, von Schlebrügge left Hammarby at the end of the 2013 Superettan season.[7] In 2015, von Schlebrügge signed for the lower division team IFK Österåker.[8]

International career

[edit]

Von Schlebrügge made his debut for the Sweden national team on 18 November 2003, in a friendly game against Egypt.[9] He made his competitive debut for Sweden on 6 June 2007 as a substitute for Mikael Nilsson in the 56th minute of a UEFA Euro 2008 qualifier against Iceland which Sweden won 5–0.[9][10] He won his 10th and last international cap in a friendly game against the United States on 24 January 2009.[9]

Personal life

[edit]

Von Schlebrügge's last name comes from his paternal grandmother from Germany, who is an older half-sister of American actress Uma Thurman's mother Nena von Schlebrügge, making Thurman his half-cousin once removed.[11]
