[ad_1]

After an excellent season in 2020, Bodø / Glimt confirms that the entire technical team will continue.

Both Kjetil Knutsen and Morten Kalvenes have extended their agreements until the summer of 2022.

– I am proud of what we have achieved and therefore it became completely natural to extend my agreement with Glimt, Knutsen tells glimt.no.

Kjetil Knutsen came to Bodø / Glimt before the 2017 season and joined Kalvenes after the 2018 season. Jonas Ueland Kolstad has been part of the team for a long time. Therefore, the technical team knows each other well and Knutsen is happy that the club agrees with the rest of the team as well.

That is crucial, of course. We are a team and we work incredibly well together, says Knutsen, who in addition to the technical team also brings out the rest of the club.

Knutsen was named Coach of the Year in the Elite Series this season.

He basically had one year left on his contract. You are now extending this by one year.

The CEO of Bodø / Glimt, Frode Thomassen, is naturally very happy to receive this good news just before Christmas.

– We are very happy that we are now entering an exciting new season together, and we can continue to develop the club to achieve the best both in the short and long term, he says.

The club also claims that they are in the final phase of negotiations with Aasmund Bjørkan to extend their contract for three new years.

The league champion will enter the Champions League rankings next season after his first league gold in club history.
