Johan Erik Calvin Elmander ({{IPA|sv|ˈjûːan ɛlˈmǎnːdɛr}}; born 27 May 1981) is a Swedish former professional footballer who played as a striker. Beginning his career with Holmalunds IF in the late 1990s, he went on to play professionally in the Netherlands, Sweden, Denmark, France, England, and Turkey before retiring at Örgryte IS in 2017. A full international between 2002 and 2015, he scored 20 goals in 85 games for the Sweden national team, and represented his country at the 2006 FIFA World Cup, UEFA Euro 2008 and UEFA Euro 2012.

In 2011, his goal for Bolton Wanderers, away to Wolverhampton Wanderers during the 2010–11 season, was voted the greatest Premier League goal ever in a poll by The Guardian.{{cite news| url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/poll/2011/dec/15/greatest-premier-league-goal-ever-poll | location=London | work=The Guardian | title=Premier League (Football), Football, Sport | date=15 December 2011}}{{cite web|url=http://www.hurriyet.com.tr/spor/futbol/19500352.asp |title=O gol, İngiltere'nin gelmiş geçmiş en iyi golü oldu – Hürriyet Futbol |work=Hürriyet |date=19 December 2011}}

Club career

{{BLP sources section|date=July 2022}}

= Early career =

Elmander was born in Alingsås, Alingsås Municipality. He started his career as a striker for Swedish clubs but changed to a centre midfielder Holmalunds IF and Örgryte, before making the move to Dutch club Feyenoord at the age of 18, where he continued to be used as a midfielder. Although never a first team regular, he came on as a substitute in the 2002 UEFA Cup Final 3–2 win against Borussia Dortmund.{{cite web|url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/european/3027393/UEFA-Cup-results-and-team-details.html|title=UEFA Cup results and team details |work=The Telegraph|date=8 May 2002 |access-date=8 May 2019}}

Elmander was subsequently put on loan back in Sweden with Djurgården, where he won the double of both Allsvenskan championship and Swedish Cup title in 2002 and Allsvenskan in 2003, however he wasn't awarded a medal as he had played too few matches. He debuted for the Sweden national team, in a February 2002 friendly match against Greece. In 2003, he was loaned out to Feyenoord's Dutch league rivals NAC Breda.

=Brøndby IF=

Before the 2004–05 season, he was bought by Danish Superliga outfit Brøndby. Despite not scoring as many goals for the club as was expected, he was the playmaker and creative spark of the Brøndby team in the 2004–05 Superliga season, playing mainly as the free-roaming forward behind the sole striker in manager Michael Laudrup's 4–3–3 formation. The team won the double of both the Danish Superliga and the Danish Cup title, and Elmander was voted Brøndby's Player of the Year.

In his two seasons at Brøndby, Elmander scored 22 goals in 58 Danish Superliga games, attracting the attention of several clubs throughout Europe. He was called up to represent Sweden at the 2006 World Cup, where he played two games. Elmander signed a four-year contract with French side Toulouse for an undisclosed fee of around €4,500,000 on 7 July 2006.

=Toulouse=

Elmander scored 11 goals in his first season with Toulouse and was nominated as player of the year by his fellow players; the award ultimately went to Lyon winger Florent Malouda. The season was very successful, with Elmander helping lead Toulouse to a third-place finish and a berth in the qualifying rounds of UEFA Champions League. The second season, much like that of his team, was much more irregular, and though he scored the same number of goals as he did the previous season, he was less decisive.

=Bolton Wanderers=

On 27 June 2008, Elmander completed a move to Premier League club Bolton Wanderers{{cite news|url=http://www.bwfc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/General/0,,1004~1335286,00.html|title=Wanderers land Swede|date=27 June 2008|access-date=29 June 2008|publisher=Bolton Wanderers F.C.|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090113033225/http://www.bwfc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/General/0%2C%2C1004~1335286%2C00.html|archive-date=13 January 2009}}{{cite news|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/teams/b/bolton_wanderers/7478332.stm|title=Bolton sign £10m-rated Elmander|date=27 June 2008|access-date=29 June 2008|publisher=BBC Sport}} for an £8.2 million fee, the club's record signing, with the deal including Daniel Braaten moving to Toulouse. Elmander signed a three-year deal, wearing the number 9 shirt by manager Gary Megson.

Elmander's first Premier League goal, a header, came on his competitive debut, against Stoke City on 16 August 2008 in a 3–1 win.{{cite news| url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/eng_prem/7551165.stm | publisher=BBC News | title=Bolton 3–1 Stoke | date=16 August 2008 | access-date=6 May 2010 | first=Owen | last=Phillips}} Elmander played 30 games in the 2008–09 season, scoring five goals and creating two assists.{{cite news|url=http://soccernet.espn.go.com/players/gamelog?id=14401&season=2008&cc=5739 |publisher=ESPN |title=Johan Elmander 08-09 |date=22 August 2009 |access-date=22 August 2010 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100825135006/http://soccernet.espn.go.com/players/gamelog?id=14401 |archive-date=25 August 2010 }}

From December 2008 to September 2009, Elmander went on a nine-month goal drought, which ended during the League Cup fixture against West Ham United as he scored in extra-time.{{cite news| url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/league_cup/8256852.stm | publisher=BBC News | title=Bolton 3–1 West Ham (aet) | date=22 September 2009 | access-date=6 May 2010}} His first league goal in 11 months came in a 5–1 defeat to Aston Villa.{{cite web |url=http://football.fanhouse.co.uk/2009/11/07/aston-villa-5-bolton-wanderers-1-five-star-villa-thrash-bolton/ |title=Aston Villa 5 Bolton 1: Five-Star Villa Thrash Bolton For Third Year Running – FanHouse UK |publisher=Football.fanhouse.co.uk |access-date=24 November 2009 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20091126133632/http://football.fanhouse.co.uk/2009/11/07/aston-villa-5-bolton-wanderers-1-five-star-villa-thrash-bolton/ |archive-date=26 November 2009 |url-status=dead }}

Elmander finally found his goalscoring form in the 2010–11 season, scoring six goals in the opening 13 games, all away from the Reebok Stadium. His first home goals of the season came against Newcastle United, giving him a joint lead as top scorer in the Premier League. However, his goalscoring form dipped and he scored just three goals between December and a goal on 12 March against Birmingham City in an FA Cup Sixth round tie.{{cite news| url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/fa_cup/9421125.stm

Due to his great performance, Galatasaray coach Fatih Terim changed the team's formation to a 4–4–2, allowing Elmander to play together with fellow striker Milan Baroš simultaneously. On 26 February 2012, he scored the opening and the winning goal of the game against Beşiktaş in a 3–2 win, and also scored goals in all derby matches, including against Fenerbahçe and Trabzonspor.
