Career

Kling had a very promising junior career, and was considered a great promise.[3] He initially struggled to establish himself as a professional rider, but managed to establish himself after a few struggling years.[3]

Kling made his British League debut in 2007 with Oxford, but when they closed mid-season, he then joined Lakeside Hammers.[4] He stayed with the Hammers for the 2008 Elite League speedway season, which was the same year in which he won the Swedish U21 title.[5]
