HC Fribourg-Gottéron confirms signings of Attilio Biasca and Ludvig Johnson

While 21-year-old forward Attilio Biasca put pen to paper on a three-year deal, 18-year-old defender Ludvig Johnson has signed a two-year contract. Gerd Zenhäusern, team manager of HCFG, describes Biasca as a fast and skilled player: "Attilio benefits from great speed, excellent technical skills, and, despite his young age, a strong physical impact. He is also very at ease in the transition game."

As for Johnson, who holds Swiss and Swedish citizenship, Zenhäusern sees potential in the youngster: “Ludvig Johnson has all the qualities needed to become an important offensive defender. We're convinced he'll be able to take another step forward in our first team next season."

This season, his second with EV Zug's main squad, Biasca scored four goals and gave out two assists in 21 games. Johnson, for his part, made his pro debut recently, collecting one assist in seven games with the Bulls. He also recorded 17 points in 14 games with Zug's U20 squad.
