The 24-year-old Swedish national playmaker of the German top club SG Flensburg-Handewitt, Jim Gottfridsson, has extended his contract with one year to the summer of 2018.

I'm sure Jim will be able to help us a lot in this and next season, and we will be making important goals for the SG. "

SG coach Ljubomir Vranjes: "I look forward to working with Jim Gottfridsson. He still has a lot more potential and he can still help us. Together with the other back court players, I have a lot of creative possibilities and a wide variety of options available as a coach."

For the past three and a half years, I have completely embraced myself here and feel really well with my family. I am happy and relieved that the decision has been made, concentrating on our common goals this season. What next season will bring, we'll see. "
