Gabriel Busanello has committed his future to Malmo FF by signing a new five-year contract that runs until the end of the 2029 season. The Brazilian midfielder announced the extension himself in a statement published on the club’s official website on Monday.
Busanello first joined Malmo FF ahead of the 2023 campaign and has since made 73 appearances across Allsvenskan and European competitions, scoring two goals and providing 17 assists. Sporting director Daniel Andersson praised his consistent performances at both domestic and continental levels over the past two seasons.
His previous deal was set to expire in 2027, but after negotiations, both parties agreed to extend the partnership by two additional years. Busanello thanked the club, his teammates, and the fans for their support, emphasizing how much it has meant to him personally and professionally since arriving in Malmö.
Malmo FF secured both the Allsvenskan title and the Svenska Cupen in 2024, a double-winning season in which Busanello played a pivotal role in midfield. His ability to recover possession and initiate attacks has made him a regular starter under head coach Henrik Rydström.

This extension provides Malmo FF with stability in a squad aiming to defend both league and cup honors in the coming seasons. With several young players pushing for starting spots, Busanello’s experience will be vital in maintaining dressing room cohesion and on-pitch leadership.
The decision also supports the club’s long-term squad planning ahead of potential summer transfer window movements. With his future now secured, Malmo FF can focus on building around a core of players committed to the club’s vision and sporting project.
It reflects a growing trend in Allsvenskan where clubs increasingly prioritize retaining players who have demonstrated loyalty and consistent performance, rather than constantly chasing new signings in the market.
