Frida Karlsson is not only popular here in Sweden.
Norwegians also have a fondness for the 25-year-old from Sollefteå.
– She is an exciting profile, says Norwegian ski base Cathrine Instebö to Expressen.
The ski season is almost here and for the Swedish part the year begins with the domestic premiere in Bruksvallarna November 22-24. The following weekend is the World Cup premiere in Ruka, Finland. One who will most likely not attend then is Frida Karlsson25. But the Swede still has reason to put on a smile.
Frida Karlsson is admired in Norway
Despite the fact that she has a foot injury that means she is out for an indefinite period of time and is forced to rehabilitate and for the moment to completely avoid skiing, she is the Norwegians’ biggest threat this season. This becomes clear when Expressen interviews the neighboring country’s ski base Cathrine Insteböwho took over as head of the national cross-country team last spring.
She is forced to choose a Swede whom she would like to transfer to the Norwegian national team. Her answer is a given. Obviously flattering for Frida.
– You, then I choose Frida Karlsson, she says.
The reason is that she simply thinks it’s an exciting person – and a really sharp skier.
– That was the first name that appeared. I have followed Frida on social media for several years and she is an exciting profile, she says.
