Green light for Klæbo – cleared to start in the sprint

Johannes Høsflot Klæbo has been cleared to compete in Saturday's World Cup sprint in Norwegian Lillehammer.

Norwegian national team doctor Ove Feragen tells NTB that Klæbo is clear to start in the sprint.

Klæbo caught a cold in connection with the premiere weekend in Ruka and the 28-year-old star skipped Friday's 15km race.

He won the sprint in Ruka last weekend, but skipped the 30km race the next day due to mild cold symptoms.
