Jimmy Thelin

Bo Jimmy Thelin (born 14 March 1978) is a Swedish football coach and former player who is currently the manager of Aberdeen.

He played until 2003 as a centre-back for IF Hagapojkarna[1] (now renamed IF Haga),[2] one of the local minor teams of the city of Jönköping, in the fourth and in the fifth level in the league system of Swedish football.

This newly founded team had its first effective season in 2006,[3] dominating the Division 6 championship with 17 wins out of 18 games total.

[5] At the beginning of the 2014 season, the previous J-Södra coach Mats Gren moved to the role of sporting director for IFK Göteborg, so the team found itself without a manager when 2014 Superettan had already started.

[9] It was announced on 16 April 2024 that Thelin had been appointed as the new manager of Aberdeen on a three-year deal starting in June 2024.
