After a strong contribution in DjurgÃÂ¥rden's 1âÂÂ0 victory, Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet described Bergvall as the man of the match and forecast that he would become "DjurgÃÂ¥rden's biggest transfer ever". On 11 October 2023, he was named by English newspaper The Guardian as one of the best players born in 2006 worldwide.
