Lars Arne Nilsen’s time in Aalesund is coming to an end. It reports Sunnmørsposten Monday.

According to the information TV 2 turns on. Only formalities remain before Nilsen finishes as coach of Aafk. According to what TV 2 learned, Aafk’s board will meet on Monday night.

Aafk had a very weak start to the season with four straight defeats, and according to the papers there has been a clash at the Color Line stadium on Monday. Chairman Gunnar Haagensen pictured at the stadium by Sunnmørsposten Monday morning.

– That’s not the case. What we see in the media is speculation. It’s natural that things are discussed after a rocky start, but there’s no conclusion that one or the other will happen, Aafk’s press manager Terje Erstad told TV 2.

According to Sunnmørsposten, sports manager Bjørn Erik Melland is also in danger of losing his job, which he has had since 2017.

– Haagensen stopped by to talk to our club director, and he does that a lot. So it’s natural to assume he was talking about circumstances. In professional football you have to keep assessing results and stuff like that, which was also done today.

– Is Lars Arne Nilsen in charge against Molde on Wednesday?

– That’s the plan. Then we’ll see if that happens on Wednesday, but no other plans beyond that right now. No decision has been made yet that Lars Arne Nilsen will be sacked.

– How does Nilsen feel about what is being written now?

– I guess he’s actually a bit confused about that, because nothing has been concluded about it yet. He may have answered the same as he did after yesterday’s match, that he is in progress with the team, that it was a tough start, but he has faith that something can be turned around.

– Lars Arne Nilsen led today’s training. I have no more to say than that, club director Ronny Stokke told TV 2.

Lars Arne Nilsen and Bjørn Erik Melland haven’t answered TV 2 questions yet.

– Aalesund has a weak run-up and they have been terrible so far in the season. They enter the season wanting and promising to play more entertaining football and create their identity. We’ve seen very little of that, says TV 2 football pundit Jesper Mathisen.

Aalesund lost 0-4 to Sandefjord on Sunday. After the first four matches, they stand with zero points, zero score and are last in the table.

– When they lose so clearly and like they did against Sandefjord, it’s a real crisis. At the moment, Aalesund is a team with no profile, they have no pace at the back, no creativity going forward and nobody to score. That Aalesund is now taking actual action is to be expected, said Mathisen.

After Sunday’s defeat, Melland said Nilsen’s coaching future had not yet been discussed.

– It’s not yet a topic. He has faith in us. We have to turn this around together, said the sports manager.

Nilsen has been coach of Aalesund since 2020.
