A great debut in the Europa League for Solskjaer, then a draw in the league. Sour loss and exit the Europa League, then victory in the cup and. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is establishing himself in Turkish football. After a 2-0 win over Kirklarelispor on Tuesday, he was asked about Svensson’s future in Istanbul.
The contract of the former Rosenborg player, who incidentally easily draws an interview in Turkish, expires on June 30. Rosenborg supporters sense the possibility of a return to Lerkendal at right-back, but Solskjaer now gives new status to Svensson’s situation at Besiktas.
– Jonas will be here as long as he wants. He is very professional. He is very well liked by his teammates, the club and the fans. He is an important player in the squad,” Solskjaer said after the cup victory.
We also don’t think Svensson will miss out on being part of Solskjaer’s journey as Besiktas coach, this could be big. A return to RBK must be put on hold.
