Bo Jimmy Thelin (born 14 March 1978) is a Swedish football coach and former player who is currently the manager of Aberdeen.
He is the older brother of Tommy Thelin, former forward and captain of Jönköpings Södra IF.




Playing career


He played until 2003 as a centre-back for IF Hagapojkarna (now renamed IF Haga), one of the local minor teams of the city of Jönköping, in the fourth and in the fifth level in the league system of Swedish football.




Managerial career


He began his coaching career taking over as FC Ljungarum coach in 2005. This newly founded team had its first effective season in 2006, dominating the Division 6 championship with 17 wins out of 18 games total.
Thelin remained at Ljungarum until 2008, winning another championship. In 2009, he started managing the Jönköpings Södra IF Under-17 team, before coaching the Under-19 and the Under-21 teams of the same club.
At the beginning of the 2014 season, the previous J-Södra coach Mats Gren moved to the role of sporting director for IFK Göteborg, so the team found itself without a manager when 2014 Superettan had already started. The board decided to promote Jimmy Thelin as a head coach of the first team, finishing the season in fourth place (the club's best finish since 1976). In the following season, he achieved an even better result, leading J-Södra back to the Allsvenskan, after 46 years since the last time.
It was announced on 16 April 2024 that Thelin had been appointed as the new manager of Aberdeen on a three-year deal starting in June 2024. He made a total of six signings for the club in the summer transfer window. Thelin's start to his tenure as the Dons manager went off positively when he helped Aberdeen win 13 out of 13 games. Thelin was awarded August's Scottish Premiership’s Manager of the Month.
