Erik Ring

Erik Ring of Kilmarnock was born in Södertälje, Sweden on 24 April 2002 (age 24).

Erik Ring, born on 24 April 2002 (age 24), is a Swedish left winger whose senior career has been shaped mainly by AIK. He made 50 league appearances across four seasons there, enough to make the Stockholm club the clear centre of his professional story rather than a passing stop.

His most productive spell came away from AIK, during a 2023 loan at Helsingborgs IF. Ring scored six goals in 29 league appearances, a useful run for a developing wide player and the sort of loan that did more than fill a line on the CV.

Ring has since moved into Scottish football with Kilmarnock, wearing squad number 8. In 2026-27 he has made one league appearance and four League Cup appearances, giving him five first-team outings for the club across all competitions.

His career so far is still rooted in AIK, with the Helsingborgs loan providing the clearest attacking return and Kilmarnock his latest stage.
