Magdalena Forsberg is a highly regarded TV expert.
And now there is a place available in SVT’s acclaimed “Winter studio”.
But then “Magda” comes with a clear message and points out Mona Brorsson instead.
There are few Swedish athletes who can compare with Magdalena Forsberg and her incredible success and popularity. She is a true, blue-yellow icon and one of biathlon’s biggest profiles of all time.
Forsberg’s answer
After the active career, “Magda” has often been seen on television as a highly valued television expert. After many years at SVT and acclaimed “Vinterstudion”, she left for Discovery (Max) in 2017.

Now speculation about a comeback to SVT has been brought to life after the current TV expert Helena Ekholm left the TV channel. But then Forsberg responds with a clear answer about returning to SVT – and instead points out another top candidate for the job.
– I think that Mona Brorsson, she has just finished competing, it would be very valuable to bring her in, says 57-year-old Magdalena to Expressen.
– I haven’t heard anything about how they’re going to do it, but I’m sure Mona would do a good job.
The Olympics are not attractive
Even the fact that SVT takes over the Olympic broadcasts for the next Winter Olympics does not seem particularly relevant to Magdalena Forsberg.
– As I understand it, they will sell some parts, but length and shooting are SVT’s content with Vinterstudion, so they will probably keep that. It’s just going to be great fun to follow. I have no plans for me to work with it, she says to the evening newspaper.

The Swedish biathlon icon is currently very current with the TV program “Over the Atlantic” which will be shown on Kanal 5 later this winter.
– It feels very exciting. There are six of us who have been hanging out for a few days and it’s a fantastic group in every way. It will be magical to cross the Atlantic with this gang, really. I am grateful for this adventure, she says in the interview.
– When I was in the selection and qualifying, then I felt very scared. But then once I had made up my mind, I got excited. This is going to be so much fun.
