Flensburg (dpa / lno) - For Tobias Karlsson handball still plays a big, but no longer the decisive role in his life.

«Besides family and health, handball is no longer everything.

But he is still a big part of my life, "said the former defense chief of the Bundesliga club SG Flensburg-Handewitt in an interview with the" Flensburger Tageblatt "(Tuesday).

The 39-year-old Swede ended his career after winning the German championship with SG in 2019.

Currently, "Tobbe" is, among other things, team manager of the Swedish national team, which will be fighting with Germany, Slovenia and Algeria in Berlin for two tickets for the Olympic Games in Tokyo from Friday.

Karlsson has no thoughts of a comeback.

When SG coach Maik Machulla reported after the serious knee injury of circuit runner Simon Hald in October 2019, he canceled.

The Swede has not yet registered for a coaching course: “I'm up for something else.

I enjoy working in handball, and I really want to work with teams and in clubs.

But I don't see myself as head coach at the moment. "
