Anders Christiansen cancelled Wednesday's training after feeling dizzy and needing treatment. Now comes the news that the team captain will not play tomorrow when Allsvenskan league leader Malmö visits runners-up Elfsborg.

"They look up the heart. There is a difference if it has been a calf muscle. Now we do not want to take chances. We follow a protocol and it takes some time before you get a message from the hospital. It's incredibly sad (that he's gone), it's our leader," Rydström told Fotbollskanalen.

The results of the values were good on Wednesday, but the survey is not completely finished yet, the site writes. It's unclear when he might be back in play.

"I know it too badly, I don't know. We don't want to be on any margins and take chances," says Rydström.

The coach has been in contact with Christiansen and he should be in "good spirits".
