Club career

Örgryte IS

Born in Kungsbacka, Jeremejeff started to play for local side Tölö IF before joining Gothenburg-club Örgryte IS in 2005.[1][2] After advancing through the academy and scoring five goals in a youth game against Malmö FF,[3] Jeremejeff was picked for the senior squad to a league game against Kristianstads FF in September 2011.[4] He made his debut the same game, substituting with Danny Ervik in the 75' minute while losing 2–3, but manage to impact the team to later win by 4–3.[5][6]

Örgryte offered Jeremejeff a senior contract after the 2011 season, which he accepted.[7] He scored his first goal in an exhibition game against Qviding on March 28 the following year, scoring the minute after he was substituted in.[8] However, he came to play only two league games during the 2012 season when Örgryte won Division 1, and decided to leave the club in January 2013 due to lack of playtime.[9][10]

Qviding FIF

Jeremejeff signed a long-term contract with Division 1 team Qviding on January 28, 2013, as a free agent.[2] The 2013 season was his first as a starting player, scoring 14 goals in 21 league games - almost half of the team's total of 33 goals, ending up being the second top scorer in division.[11][12] His record made him attractive to professional clubs and on 26 October 2013 he was signed by the Allsvenskan club BK Häcken.[13] Jeremejeff have afterwards expressed gratitude to Qviding manager Bosko Orovic, claiming he was the football coach that meant most for his football career.[14]

Dynamo Dresden

On 13 August 2019, Jeremejeff signed for German 2. Bundesliga Dynamo Dresden on a two-year contract for an undisclosed fee.[20] On 18 August 2019, he scored on his Dresden debut; the winning goal in a 2–1 victory at home to 1. FC Heidenheim.[21] After a further 5 appearances and a goal,[16] Jeremejeff tore his calf muscle in a 4–1 defeat to local rivals Erzgebirge Aue on 29 September 2019,[22] ruling him out until late October.[23]
