Paul Warne is excited about Derby’s new signing, Lars-Jorgen Salvesen, who brings fresh talent to the team after a long search for a striker
Salvesen just signed a two-and-a-half-year deal from Viking FK. He’s set to train with the team today. This is a big deal for Derby, who really needed to boost their attack.
Last season, Salvesen scored 12 goals and had four assists. Warne thinks he’ll bring a fresh vibe to the squad. He’s a mobile player, which is exactly what they need.
Warne mentioned he’s been wanting a different type of forward. The current players have done well, but they needed someone who can create chances. Salvesen fits that bill perfectly.
He’s great at getting into the right spots, especially for headers. Warne and his team liked him the most out of all the options they considered. Plus, he was available and eager to join.
This move is a big change for Salvesen, too. He’s switching countries and leagues, which will be a new experience for him. Warne is confident this will be a fantastic addition to the team.
