Jonas Jerebko signed for Russian CSKA Moscow on Wednesday, something that provoked strong reactions.
"Do not even know if I want to know his reasons for this as there is nothing that justifies his decision.
Absolutely unbelievable ", writes the Swedish star Frida Eldebrink wrote on social media.
"We are currently very uncertain"
Jerebko, who made a comeback in the national team after an eight-year break, has been seen in the marketing before Sweden's World Cup qualifier against Slovenia this summer.
A picture of Jerebko has graced the front page of the association, but on Wednesday afternoon it was removed.
- We are currently very uncertain about what has caused his signature with CSKA Moscow, we need to continue to have contact, we need to talk to him, he has not responded yet, says the basketball association's general secretary Fredrik Joulamo to SVT Sport.
- I would not have signed for a Russian team if I had received that offer.
How did you react to the news?
- I am surprised of course like everyone else, you think about how to come to the decision to sign for Moscow, but I have a good relationship with Jonas and want to talk to him about what positions he has taken, before I can not say how he has thought.
Will you take more action?
- We have talked about it internally in the association and in the management and we have come to the conclusion that we want to market the match with Ludvig Håkansson instead, now we want to talk to Jonas, says Joulamo.
