Footballer couple separated after six years! She is single again

London (United Kingdom) - Was around 1,400 kilometers as the crow flies too much in the end? For years, the two soccer stars Anton Salétros (28) and Johanna Rytting Kaneryd (27) had a long-distance relationship and were one of the dream couples of Swedish top-class sport. But now it's all over!

As Aftonbladet reported on Monday morning, the two professionals are going their separate ways from now on.

"That's right," Salétros confirmed the break-up after six years in an interview with the national tabloid, without giving any further details.

There is now speculation as to the reasons for the break-up, and physical distance could be the decisive factor in ending the love affair.

While the 28-year-old has been under contract with domestic first division club AIK Fotboll since June of last year, his ex-partner left their home country for the United Kingdom in 2022 - and has been playing for top London team Chelsea FC Women ever since.

"We are both following our dreams and supporting each other in the process. If one of us had given up our dream to follow the other, it probably wouldn't have worked, at least one of us wouldn't have felt comfortable," the 27-year-old revealed in an Expressen interview.

Now, around ten months after the declaration of love, the completely surprising separation.
