Oscar Magnus Steinke[a] Brånby (born 7 February 2006) is a Swedish professional footballer who plays as a left-back for Allsvenskan club Hammarby IF.[1]

Club career

After impressive performances for two consecutive years in Ettan, Steinke was promoted to the senior team of Hammarby ahead of the 2026 season.[2] He rejected proposals from other Allsvenskan clubs in order to fight for a spot with Hammarby.[3] On 4 April 2026 he made his Allsvenskan debut in a 3–0 win against reigning champions Mjällby AIF.[4]

Style of play

Despite primarily playing as a left-back, Steinke is known for his dribbling ability.[5]
