Erling Braut Haaland’s loyal helper, Ivar Eggja, passed away on Wednesday at the age of 59. “What a legend you are Ivar. Words cannot describe how much you have meant to me. Words cannot describe how much you will be missed. Give more fuck! Give more Damn. That’s exactly what I’m going to do. Thank you so much for all your madness. May we meet again.”, writes Haaland in a post on Instagram. Haaland’s agent, Rafaela Pimenta, pays tribute to Eggja in a post on Instagram. “From the moment I met you, I understood that your strength was to light up any room. Little did I know that it was actually a superpower and you were to go through so much, so suddenly and so quickly, in a way it is the greatest example of strength, dignity, tolerance and optimism that family and friends could ever dream of. », writes Pimenta. “It was an honor to be part of a small part of your journey,” she concludes. VG reported the case first in Norway. Eggja was known as “Mr. fixer” and was responsible for making Haaland’s life as easy as possible. In March, Aftenbladet wrote a longer story about Eggja, where former sports journalist Egil Ø. Nærland elaborated on the family friend’s role. – Ivar is primarily an enormously loyal supporter of Erling and the team around him. But I also see him as important in negotiations around Erling’s personal commercial contracts, he said. Eggja is the second supporting player Haaland has lost in just a couple of years. in 2022, his former agent, Mino Raiola also passed away at the age of 54. (NTB)
