AIK had a disappointing season, where the team did not win a single match in the wake of the sale of Brazilian star Wílton Figueiredo, dropping out of the title chase, missing European qualification in the process. Argentine recruits Iván Obolo and Lucas Valdemarín impressed upon their arrivals, forming an impressive unit with Figueiredo, which was curtailed when Al-Rayyan bought Figueiredo in September. The defense was arguably AIK's greatest asset, conceding just 28 goals, led by keeper Daniel Örlund and new talisman Nils-Eric Johansson.

Season events

Prior to the start of the season, AIK announced the signings of Per Rønning, Patrik Karlsson, Alexander Gerndt and Niklas Westberg. Rønning and Karlsson both signed three-year contracts, whilst Nicklas Bergh joined Enköpings SK on loan for the season when Westberg signed.[1] [2] [3] [4]

On 11 January, AIK and venture capital company Agent 03, announced the signings of Khari Stephenson from GAIS to a four-year contract.[5]
