It's still a thrill to talk about the elated celebration when AGF Aarhus won the league title in Denmark for the first time in 40 years. – It was a huge release. It wasn't just a football club that could jubilate freely after waiting 40 years – it was a whole football town that went wild, smiles Magnus. He smiles when he sees one of the girls' teams from Høybråten and Stovner IL (HSIL) training on the pitch in front of the new clubhouse. – It feels like it was just yesterday I was flying around on this pitch when I was their age, Magnus notes. It's not that long ago – just a few weeks ago, Magnus turned 25. The girls are not entirely clear who is standing and watching them, but they soon realize that it is a quite well-known football player – and of course, they will be in a picture with him. It's no doubt that he showed early on that he was a talent. This can be confirmed by Jarle Hansen, who was involved in the four teams with players born in 2001 who started playing football in Høybråten. When they started, the first 12 who signed up were the first team, the next 12 were the second team, and so on. – The teams were evenly matched, and in the internal matches, any team could win. But there was no doubt about who was the best player. We could all see what a talent Magnus was. A fantastic motor and a beast to meet on the pitch. He had X-factor so it held. Everyone dreamed of becoming as good as him, Hansen says. – But just as important was his good humor, and he was the one who always wanted to help the others. Guided and motivated, Hansen adds. Magnus' football journey from Høybråten began in Kjelsås, before he moved to Lillestrøm in 2019 where he played until 2021 (including a loan spell in Ull/Kisa). In 2022, the journey continued to Rostov in Russia where he played only one game in two years, which was due to the war between Russia and Ukraine. In the two-year period, he was first loaned to Lillestrøm, then AGF Aarhus. When the contract expired, the next stop was Holstein Kiel, which had promoted to the Bundesliga for the first time. Unfortunately, it was a short-lived stay, and the club was immediately relegated. – I played all the games until the club brought in more new players. So, I was not just immediately taken out of the team, but out of the entire squad – without any explanation as to why. I didn't understand anything. How tough football can be. It was a phone call to my agent, Mike Kjølø. Something had to be done, Magnus says. In January, everything changed for Magnus. He was sold to AGF Aarhus, the club he had previously been on loan to while he was in Russian Rostov's ownership. – Since then, it's been going well. AGF had a crazy season so far and was at the top. I came to the table, but I still went straight into the team. Under such circumstances, you get a lot of self-confidence, and that's when you play better football, Magnus says. – It helped, of course, that I had played there before. I knew the conditions. Met many of the same faces. In addition, I have three Norwegian teammates – Markus Solbakken, Mads Hedenstad Kristiansen, and Kristian Arnestad. Even in Denmark, it's nice to have some around you who speak your native language, Magnus smiles. He is happy with his football life now. He compares himself to one of the players who has been part of this historic achievement. He has returned to his childhood club and has played a significant role in AGF's triumph.
