The Euro 2002 market
place
By Rasmus Holm Thomsen
Wilbek, Dalmose, Arvidson and Haagen - All of them are here
following the matches from the seats. Besides being a fight for
the championship title, the Euro 2002 is a display window for the
players. Most league coaches have visited either Farum or Helsinge
to size up potential players. Fox Team Nord Coach Heine Eriksen
is a coach on the look out for new players.
'We are on the look out for new players for next season. Among
other things we would like to reinforce our goalkeeper position
and our right side. Left-hand players are at a premium and I am
probably not the only one who wants to reinforce the right-back
position and the right-wing position'
Heine Eriksen and Fox Team Nord have already contacted a few players,
but like everyone else he does not want to reveal any names.
Coach Morten Arvidson from Randers HK took the opportunity to size
up the star players. Not only did he want to buy new players, he
also wanted to size up the opponents.
'There is a good chance of sizing up opponents for potential European
Cup matches. We already know many of them but we like to follow
the development. Furthermore, it is nice to know the players in
advance in case an agent contacts us. It means that we do not need
to rely 100% on the agent because we know what the players are made
of'
