The Scandinavian team no longer relies on midfielder Matthias Normann, who chose money.

Or money, or honor. The midfielder Matthias Normann was put in front of such a choice in the management of Norwegian football. The fact is that the football player was offered very good money for the transfer to the Russian championship.

According to the head coach of the Norwegians, Stole Solbakken, he begged the player for a long time to refuse Russian blood money, but the player signed a contract with Dynamo Moscow. Immediately after this, automatically loses a place in the national team.

“It was not a very difficult choice. I called him after hearing about it on Saturday and informed him about what the possible consequences would be if he signed the contract. He did it. I informed him before the federation sent the invitations “, – said Solbakken in an interview with the Norwegian Football Federation.

They fully supported the mentor in the leadership of Scandinavian football.

“Actually, the association is not competent to judge the club’s selection of national team players, but now there is a state of emergency. He actively used his positions in sports.

All Russian teams have been suspended from international sports competitions. Solbakken and I agree that Normann cannot represent Norway if he plays for a new club in Russia,” Norwegian Football Federation president Lise Claveness said.

Recall that earlier French basketball players were forbidden to sign contracts with Russian clubs and play in the aggressor country.
