Johnsen The Traveller Seeks Settled Base

As the old joke goes.... he’s had more clubs than Jack Nicklaus...

But Bjorn Johnsen (29), laid back and relaxed in the sunshine at his Alicante home, brought some interesting narrative to the exchange with Montreal’s weather-jealous sports media.

After 11 clubs in 9 years he’s ready to settle somewhere longer.

“We’re having a baby soon so we wanted to settle down for at least three years and maybe more. I want to come to Montreal and make myself indispensable so that the club wants me to stay,” said Johnsen.

The Norwegian went on to explain that his coming to Montreal was down to Olivier Renard, for whom he almost signed when he was leaving Den Haag ADO at the end of 2017/18.
