Club career

edit

IFK Norrköping

edit

Dagerstål, a native of Norrköping, began training at IFK Norrköping at four years old.[2] He spent the 2013 season at loan at IF Sylvia, making his professional debut for them coming on in the last minute in a 2–1 victory over IF Limhamn Bunkeflo. In the following 2014 season, he made his senior debut for IFK Norrköping, appearing twice in that year's Allsvenskan. He scored his first goal for Norrköping during 2015 against Halmstad BK, and made five more appearances during IFK's successful run for the Swedish championship in 2015.[3] Dagerstål himself was however again loaned out to IF Sylvia during the conclusion of the season. During the following years, he mainly came on as a substitute before stabilizing himself as a starter at the centre-back position during the 2019 and 2020 seasons. Following the 2020 campaign, and 132 league appearances for IFK, he chose to not renew his contract, and instead pursue a career abroad.[4]

FC Khimki

edit

On 23 January 2021, Dagerstål signed with Russian Premier League club FC Khimki.[5] On 7 March 2022, FIFA introduced special regulations related to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Those regulations allowed foreign players in Russia to unilaterally temporarily suspend their contracts with their Russian clubs until the end of the 2021–22 season and join clubs outside of Russia until that date.[6] On 17 March 2022, Dagerstål used the new rule to return to IFK Norrköping until 30 June.[7] On 5 July 2022, Dagerstål suspended his Khimki contract for the 2022–23 season under the same FIFA regulations that have been extended for a year.[8]

Lech Poznań

edit

On 26 July 2022, Polish side Lech Poznań announced the signing of Dagerstål on a one-year contract.[9] On 24 May 2023, after FIFA prolonged the regulations until 30 June 2024, it was announced that he would remain at Lech until his contract with Khimki expires, and then join the club on a permanent basis.[10]

On 28 October 2023, he sustained an ankle injury during a 1–1 league draw against Cracovia.[11] Initially expected to be out of action for three to six weeks, he missed the rest of the season and the first half of the following campaign. In March 2025, two months after resuming training, he underwent another surgery on his ankle which would sideline him for the remainder of the 2024–25 season.[12][13] His contract was terminated by mutual consent on 25 June 2025.[14]
