These are the words with which Nystad confirmed its decision to the newspaper Adresseavisen: & ldquo; I am going to leave the & rsquo; assignment at the end of this season. & Egrave; It was a & rsquo; experience exciting, what I was most & ugrave; wowed & egrave; was working with the best athletes in the world. And then I had people as collaborators of great intelligence, Steinar Mundal to Tor Arne Hetland, Arild Monsen Egil Kristiansen Roar Hjelmeset & rdquo ;.
The 45 year old became head coach in 2011 after the World Championships in Oslo, had previously had experience with the United States and Switzerland. The pi & ugrave; great successes of his administration are related to World Falun and all & rsquo; explosion of Martin Johnsrud Sundby.
However Nystad also had to live with conflict between Petter Northug and the Federation, began in 2013 and still not fully resolved, but his opinion about it & egrave; precise: & ldquo; Petter & egrave; a nice guy, when I read in the media that combines seem to know two different people. Looking at the past, my relationship with him & egrave; only positive & rdquo ;.
As for the future Nystad, husband of the former cross-country skier Claudia K & uuml; nzel with which you have recently had a baby, has not planned anything: & ldquo; I have not anything planned, but for a time I'd rather stay home with my family. Not leave & egrave; It was a difficult choice, this work & egrave; like a relay race, a natural process to take hold of the situation and leave it after a while & rsquo; of time. The team & egrave; on top of the world and deserves new people and new enthusiasm to stay there & rdquo ;.
For the role of head coach of the Norwegian team the favorite seems to be Tor Arne Hetland, joined the coaching staff down & agrave; last summer. These are the words of the Director of the teams Vidar L ø FSUs: & ldquo; No & egrave; yet it decided on a successor to Nystad, but Hetland & egrave; definitely a very good candidate & rdquo ;.
