Mattsson took charge of the Sierra Leone national team in January 2011, and in March of that year publicly expressed a desire to remain in the job once his one-match contract expired. In April 2011, Mattsson's contract was extended until the end of the 2012 Africa Cup of Nations qualifying campaign. However, Mattsson, who was appointed by the Sports Ministry, was not recognised by the Sierra Leone Football Association, until a meeting between the two organisations confirmed Mattsson's role as manager.
Mattsson was awarded a full-time contract in May 2012.
On 28 March 2013, Mattsson quit his job as manager of the Sierra Leone national team, and announced he wanted to take a break from football. However, the Sierra Leone Football Association denied knowledge of the resignation.
