Evans, who left Johansson on the bench at the weekend as he took a look at Dillon Phillips, admits that the likelihood is the Swede will go.

He is clear there is huge interest in Johansson.

“The chances are that, with the huge interest in him, Viktor will leave in the summer”, Evans was quoted as saying by the Star.

“It will probably be a life-changing move for the kid.”

Johansson, 25, has been capped by Sweden at international level and will likely not want to play in League One next term.
