The Norwegian goalkeeper is clubless after La Liga club Sevilla brought in new owners this summer. – His efforts in the World Cup and especially the victory over Brazil have aroused interest in several Premier League clubs, including Leeds and Everton.
What is a small downer for Nyland is that most people want him as a second goalkeeper, a position he wants to avoid. Norway’s national team manager Ståle Solbakken has on several occasions been clear that regular play at a high level is an important factor for selection to the squad.

Now an old acquaintance is “on the wings” and wants a return.
The 35-year-old without a contract could be a backup for Maarten Vandevoordt in Martin Demichelis’ new RB Leipzig team. – Last season they finished 3rd in the Bundesliga and qualified for the Champions League.
Bundesliga club RB Leipzig are reportedly in talks with Norwegian Ørjan Nyland about a transfer in the summer, according to Sky Germany. The goalkeeper is one of the options if Peter Gulácsi decides to go to Villarreal.
Nyland has been at the club before. He played for RB Leipzig in the 2022/23 season, when he also came in as a free agent. Now he is being considered again – this time as second goalkeeper behind Maarten Vandevoordt.
Before his stay at RB Leipzig, the Norwegian also had experience from German football with three years at FC Ingolstadt 04, both in the Bundesliga and in the 2. Bundesliga.

In this summer’s World Championships, Nyland was one of Norway’s great heroes. He started in five out of six games when Norway shocked the football world and reached the quarter-finals – with his best game against Brazil. Now he may be on his way back to Germany.
