Jakob Lilja joins the EVZ with immediate effect

The EVZ draws an additional foreign licence and signs Swedish winger Jakob Lilja (32) from Löwen Frankfurt with immediate effect until the end of the season.

Jakob Lilja is no stranger to Switzerland. From 2023 to 2025, the 32-year-old played two seasons for Ambrì-Piotta and Fribourg-Gottéron. In a total of 107 games in the National League, Lilja scored 23 goals and 28 assists. In the summer, he moved to Frankfurt in the DEL – now Lilja is returning to Switzerland.

 

“With the signing of Jakob Lilja, we are strengthening ourselves once again for the decisive phase of the season. Jakob is versatile and will give our offence additional momentum.”

Reto Kläy, General Manager

 

Jakob Lilja arrived in Zug on Monday and will complete his first training session with the team on Tuesday.
