Player profile

Overview

Anders Caleb Schylander was born on 2 June 1895 in Göteborg. His IFK Göteborg first-team career began in the 1913 season. He came through IFK Göteborg's youth system before the senior debut and is regarded by the club as a home-grown player. He made his competitive debut on 17 August 1913 against IFK Malmö in Kamrat Championship, a match that finished 9–0.

He spent 7 seasons with IFK Göteborg's first team and made 138 appearances and scoring 81 goals.

Schylander won the Swedish championship with IFK Göteborg in 1918. Schylander made 7 senior international appearances for Sweden.

Schylander died on 4 August 1977, aged 82.

For seasons before 1922, surviving participation records are not always complete. Match and goal totals from that period should therefore be read as the best available documented record.
