Elvira Öberg, who is third in the total World Cup, fell ill two weeks ago and missed the World Cup competitions in Antholz. She has not been able to start training with the team until Monday when the World Championship athletes began their World Championship preparation in Obertilliach in Austria.
We have laid out a clever and clear plan for Elvira, so it feels very comfortable, says national team coach Johannes Lukas to SVT.
Lukas reports that Sebastian Samuelsson has also missed a few days of training but is now back.
It's a special situation, there are high expectations on the team. We can now load with a full squad the last week before the World Championship.
The World Championship in Swiss Lenzerheide starts on February 12 with a mixed relay.
