Sørloth's Partner Lena Selnes: Life Behind Norway's Star

Away from his prominent soccer career, Alexander Sørloth's life is shared with his longtime partner, Lena Selnes. The couple welcomed their second child late last year, a significant milestone for their family. This event occurred shortly before Norway's participation in the World Cup's round of 16 match against Brazil, where Sørloth plays as Erling Haaland's main attacking partner.

Selnes, who grew up in the Norwegian community of Alsvåg, met Sørloth about ten years ago. She pursued a degree to become a kindergarten teacher before settling in Madrid with their children. She has spoken about the unique aspects of life accompanying Sørloth's career. Notably, Selnes has opted to give birth without Sørloth present, a personal choice she has also made for their second child, prioritizing her focus during labor.

Sørloth, a 30-year-old forward for Atlético Madrid, has previously played for clubs across Europe. There are reports linking him with a summer transfer to Juventus, which would mark the family's first time living in Italy. For the moment, Selnes' focus remains on supporting Sørloth from afar as Norway competes in the World Cup.
