Stronger football country than Finland, but Viborgs are in the Danish 2nd tier (mid table).
He’s given up chance of European football also by leaving KuPS
4 points off promotion and they’ve been in the Superliga for a while getting relegated just last year, if he’s lucky promotion could come and he could make an even bigger step up :)
Good move for him - can establish himself in the Danish second tier at one of the stronger clubs in that league with a good chance of promotion.
As you say, Viborg have been in the Superliga for three of the last four seaons, being relegated only last season.

Won the second tier in 2013 and 2015.
Bit of a yo-yo club over the last five seasons.
Were continuously in the top flight 1997 - 2008 (was called the "First Division" until rebranded the "Superliga" in 2006)
By the way, there's no "s" on the end of the name - it's just "Viborg" - also known as "VFF"
Viborg is the capital of Midtjylland ("Central") province and that name should ring a bell with Kiwi football supporters as the major club in the province is FC Midtjylland where Winston Reid played his football in Denmark, before what is still the club record transfer to West Ham for €4.26M in 2010.
The most famous product of Viborg's junior academy is current Denmark and Glasgow Celtic defender Erik Sviatchenko, born in Viborg, who funnily enough made his senior pro debut as a sub for Winston Reid at FC Midtjylland in 2009.
