25 July 2023 at 21:09 Sørloth ready for Villarreal: The club choice is praised by Solbakken The Norwegian national team striker Alexander Sørloth is ready for the La Liga club Villarreal. The choice of club went down well with national team coach Ståle Solbakken. – I like it… writes Solbakken in an SMS to news. Villarreal confirmed the transfer on Tuesday evening and states that Sørloth has signed a five-year contract with the yellow jerseys. Earlier this summer, Villarreal sold striker Nicolas Jackson to Chelsea. He scored as many league goals as Sørloth (12) last season. – There is no one in their squad who is like him as a player, and after what has happened in the past at the club, everything is set for a lot of playing time and hopefully match-deciding actions, writes Solbakken. Sørloth knows Spanish football well and has spent the last two seasons on loan at Real Sociedad. Now he is leaving RB Leipzig permanently after what turned out to be a disappointing stay in German football. Now he hopes to continue his success in Spain, this time for the club known as “the yellow submarine”. Villarreal finished in 5th place last season, behind Sørloth’s old club, and will thus play in the Europa League next season.
