Career
After attending trials in Stockholm, Almqvist joined the Nike Football Academy before signing a professional contract with Norrköping for the 2017 season.[3] On 23 September 2017, he made his debut for Norrköping, playing the last ten minutes in a 2–1 loss to Halmstads.[4] He spent part of the 2017 season loan at Division 2 side IF Sylvia where he played three games and scored one goal.[5] He joined Varbergs BoIS on loan at the start of the 2018 season and played four times before returning to Norrköping in July 2018.[6] He scored his first two goals for Sweden U21 in September 2020 [7]
On 15 October 2020, Almqvist signed a five-year contract with Russian Premier League club Rostov.[8] On 7 March 2022, FIFA introduced special regulations related to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Those regulations allow foreign players in Russia to unilaterally temporarily suspend their contracts with their Russian clubs until the end of the 2021–22 season and join clubs outside of Russia until that date.[9] On 17 March 2022, Almqvist used the new rule to sign with FC Utrecht in the Netherlands until the end of the 2021–22 season.[10]
FIFA extended their regulations for the 2022–23 season, allowing Almqvist to join Polish side Pogoń Szczecin on a one-year loan spell on 5 July 2022.[11]
