Silje Solberg joined Györ back in 2020. But during the summer she will leave the Hungarian powerhouse.
– There are situations in life where you have to look not only at yourself, but also at your family, she says at the club’s website.
After two successful years in Siofok Silje Solberg joined Györ during the summer of 2020. Since then she has been half of a very skillful goalkeeping tandem together with Sandra Toft.
But now the club confirmed that the Norwegian international will leave after the season. This despite the fact that Györ wanted to extend her contract for a long time.
– We are not only talking about one of the best goalkeepers in the world, but also about a fantastic person. With Silje’s performance, she deserved to be offered a long-term contract extension. It was not a secret that we intended to sign a multi-year contract with Toft and Solberg. This summer, during Silje’s pregnancy we indicated our intention to extend the contract, so that she can concentrate on her duties as a mother, and we will discuss the details after her return to Győr, stated Péter Endrődi, the Managing Director of Győri ETO Kft.
– We had to make a very difficult decision, as I feel very good in Győr. Thank you for your trust in me, the club really supported me in everything during the past years. There are situations in life where you have to look not only at yourself, but also at your family. I don’t want to say goodbye yet, as I want to help the team on all fronts in the remaining six months, said Silje Solberg herself.
