Alexander Sørloth is a passionate man at the moment, and dad Gøran Sørloth thinks it’s a good sign that there is interest in the Premier League.
After a fantastic season last year at Trabzonspor, where Sørloth became the top scorer in the Turkish league, rumors of bigger clubs began to circulate.
RB Leipzig has long been rumored to have had Sørloth at the top of the wish list, something coach Julian Nagelsmann confirmed last week. I could say that the club has submitted an offer for Sørloth, but that the situation is difficult.

Last week it was also clear that Tottenham have thrown themselves into the battle for the Norwegian’s signature.
– We are in talks with Leipzig and Tottenham, club president Ahmed Agaoglu said on Trabzonspor on Sunday, according to the Fanatik website.
– That is very good
Alexander Sørloth’s father, Gøran Sørloth, thinks it is a good sign that there is interest in his son.
– It is very good that there are several big names on the block who are interested in Alexander, it is a sign that he has done well and created a career that will hopefully take another new step, says Gøran Sørloth to Nettavisen.
At the same time, he notes that nothing has been signed yet.
– I have a task that involves being as calm as the skerries in the yard, considering that no contract has been drawn up and nothing has been decided.
The online newspaper has contacted agent Mike Kjølø, who does not want to comment on the situation at the Sørloth club.
– Little information to get from here now, write Kjølø in an SMS to Nettavisen.
– I’m not looking for revenge
Alexander Sørloth remains the property of Crystal Palace, after it was bought by the London club in January 2018. His stint at the Palace was not a great success, and has recently been loaned to Ghent and Trabzonspor.
Now there is speculation of a return to the Premier League for the forward, but the father does not believe that the son feels that he has nothing unresolved in the English league.
– When you do this sport, this revenge is not the starting point, it is rather to go beyond the limits and see how far it goes. We have learned over a long life that nothing becomes history as fast as results and what has been done before, it is the present and the future that matter. I think neither Alexander nor those around him have any desire for revenge to prove that something was wrong at the Palace, he says.

Pappa Sørloth emphasizes that it was a great transition when his son went to the Premier League in 2018, and that he is now another player.
– It gets a little nuanced. He was in the Premier League, and at a stage in his life where he jumped from the Danish Super League to the Premier League. It is clear that the jump is great. But it has learned and taken step by step, and it is getting more and more robust. He is now approaching 25, and has been at Crystal Palace for two years. He has improved a lot by saying that. Everyone can see that there is another boy who plays soccer. His toes are light, he says.
Tottenham manager José Mourinho faced the rumors from Sørloth on Sunday.
– I won’t talk about Sørloth. If the president of Trabzonspor has said that, I will not say that it is not true. I think Sørloth is the Trabzonspor player and that’s why I can’t talk about that, Mourinho said on Sunday after the 1-0 loss to Everton.
Not contacted with Sørloth
Alexander Sørloth should also have initially been loaned out to Trabzonspor next season. Now, however, it looks like he’s headed for a new club for Trøndelag.
The Trabzonspor coach said on Sunday night that the club had not seized Sørloth after the national team’s break and, according to Turkish media, disciplinary punishment can be expected for the 24-year-old.
– It is a bit painful to leave a group of players, club and management. He has thrived in Trabzon and has had a fantastic relationship with everyone. It is like this when you play professional sports, the path continues to a large extent if you are successful. And they probably all knew there was no end in sight. If it was successful in Trabzon, then it was an intermediate station and not an end station. And I think everyone is ready for that, says Gøran Sørloth.
