Molde has found its new head coach in Sindre Tjelmeland, who is currently an assistant coach at Polish club Lech Poznan. Tjelmeland will take over Molde no later than May 2026, when the Polish season is over. In recent days, talks between Molde and the 36-year-old have intensified, and the coach has now agreed to become the club's next head coach. Molde still needs to reach an agreement with Lech Poznan to buy out Tjelmeland's contract before he can take over the team. Sindre Tjelmeland has experience from both Åsane and Lech Poznan, and has been an assistant coach under several well-known coaches. He is known for his offensive playing style and his ability to develop young players. Molde has also been in talks with Swedish coach Martin Falk to become Tjelmeland's assistant. Falk has coached IFK Norrköping in Sweden and has experience from both Allsvenskan and Superettan. The Molde leadership is now in Poland to finalize the details with their upcoming coach and negotiate with Lech Poznan. It is still unclear what will happen to Magne Hoseth, who has led the team as interim coach for the season. Hoseth has not commented on his future at the club. Molde has had a long and difficult search for a new coach, but now it seems they have found their man. Sindre Tjelmeland is a young and promising coach who can bring new energy and impulses to the club. He has already shown himself to be a skilled coach at both Åsane and Lech Poznan, and Molde hopes he can lead them back to the top of Eliteserien. Molde will now try to buy out Tjelmeland's contract from Lech Poznan, so he can take over the team before the season is over. This will give him the opportunity to prepare the team for next season and bring his own playing style to the club.
