Örebro SK
Ring started his football career at a young age with local side Adolfsbergs IK. He played for the first team in Division 4, until signing a 2-year youth contract with Örebro SK before the 2013 season. The following summer, Ring went on loan to BK Forward for the remainder of the contract and played 33 league games with the side in Division 1. In January 2015, Örebro offered Ring a senior contract, which he accepted.
During the 2015 Allsvenskan season he was an unused substitute for the team, being the second choice behind Logi Valgarðsson in the left-back position. He however made his senior debut in Svenska Cupen, when he started in the 3–0 win against BKV Norrtälje. During the pre-season for the following season, Valgarðsson picked up an injury, which opened a spot for Ring in the starting eleven. He made his Allsvenskan debut in the premier game of 2016 Allsvenskan against Djurgårdens IF. On 23 July 2016, he scored his first Allsvenskan goal in a 3–1 win against Falkenbergs FF.
Style of play
Ring is a technical left-footed offensive player, who is originally a central midfielder but was ordered to play as wing back for Adolfsberg, a position he has played ever since.
Personal life
Sebastian grew up in a sports-oriented family in Örebro, Närke. His older brother Jonathan is a footballer as well, currently playing for Kalmar FF. He also played floorball and ice hockey in his youth, until he focused full-time on football.
