Abgar Barsom

He made his first spell at Djurgården from 2000 to 2002, after having joined Djurgården from Forward. He was later sold to Heerenveen in the Netherlands, but his time at the Abe Lenstra Stadion was not successful. Consequently, Barsom returned to Sweden and Djurgården at the start of the 2004 season. He has won the Swedish championship twice, in 2002 and 2005. After the 2006 season, Barsom announced that he was looking for a new challenge in another club. He signed a six-month contract with Greek club Messiniakos in the second division. When his contract with Messiniakos ran out, he signed for Allsvenskan team Örebro. After saving the club from relegation and the contract with Örebro had expired, he joined Norwegian club Fredrikstad. He finished his career with Syrianska.

Barsom appeared five times for the Sweden U17 team in 1993.

Barsom is of Assyrian-Swedish descent. He is a Syriac Orthodox Christian and prays frequently.
