Per Markus Jonsson (born 9 March 1981) is a Swedish former professional footballer who played as a defender. He played for Öster, AIK, Panionios, and Brann during a club career that spanned between 1999 and 2014. A full international between 2007 and 2009, he won four caps for the Sweden national team.
He was born in Växjö, Sweden, and played seven seasons for his hometown team Öster. In November 2005, Jonsson signed for AIK on a free transfer, and managed to out-compete Jimmy Tamandi for the right-back spot at AIK. Impressive play from Jonsson made him frequently named as a contender for said spot in the national team.
More than just a skilled defender, Jonsson is known for his well-chosen offensive runs and precise crosses, forming a tremendous partnership with right winger Kenny Pavey. An excellent marksman from the penalty spot and AIK's first-choice penalty taker, Jonsson has stated in several interviews that he has never missed a penalty kick in a competitive match as a senior player. According to himself, he converted 25 penalties in a row when playing in Sweden.
In January 2010 he signed for Panionios on a free transfer.[1] After two years in Greece, he signed for the Norwegian club Brann on 16 January 2012.[2]
Jonsson won four caps for the Sweden national team between 2007 and 2009.[3]
