Torbjørn Heggem has made an impression in Bologna after being chosen over Leo Skiri Østigård. He has learned a bit about Italian culture and plans to return to school to learn more. Heggem has been chosen over Østigård after being benched in Bologna's Serie A opener against Roma. He played the whole game when Serie A club Bologna beat Como 1-0 last weekend. Head coach Vincenzo Italiano has noticed Heggem's performance since his arrival in Italy. - Since he came, he has always asked for guidance to understand us better, he said according to Italian media. Heggem himself says he has been very proactive in trying to adapt to his new club as quickly as possible, especially since there is a significant language barrier in the club. - The transition is tough. From understanding everything that is said to not understanding anything. We don't have our own interpreter either, so it becomes the players who translate, Heggem said. He has already taken action and plans to return to school in his new hometown to learn more. - I will start with teachers now after the gathering. We'll see if it's possible to learn something now, even if I'm getting older, Heggem said. Ståle Solbakken was asked by NRK earlier this week if he recognized how Italiano described Heggem after his arrival in Italy. - He is an upbeat man, so he has taken things quickly here on the national team as well, he said. Heggem is now competing with Kristoffer Ajer and Østigård for two places in the Norwegian midfield. On Thursday, Finland is waiting in a training match, and it is expected that the goalkeeper duo that starts the match will also get trust when it really matters in the VM-kvaliken against Moldova on Tuesday. Nettavisen tried to get landslagssjef Ståle Solbakken to give an assessment of how tight it is between the stopper candidates Østigård, Heggem and Kristoffer Ajer during the press conference on Wednesday. - This goes on performances and whether you get the necessary playing time, and how they look if they don't get the necessary playing time. I have a notion in my head of how it should look, and for now, it's on the schedule, Solbakken said. - If you go through them one by one, how do you think they look? - Now all three look fine, Solbakken said. - Have you decided who you will go with from the start against Finland? - Yes. - Will it be the same against Moldova on Tuesday? - It's just a routine, Solbakken said.
