He's already European Champion 2016, soon also World Champion 2023?

National handball player Rune Dahmke could ask his girlfriend how it works.

Kiel - The Handball World Championship is taking place in Poland and Sweden from January 11th to 29th.

Germany are also there, playing in Group E against Qatar, Algeria and Serbia.

The start for the Germans around national coach Alfred Gislason is January 13 against Qatar – Rune Dahmke is in the squad, and the only thing missing from his trophy case is the World Cup trophy.

Champions League winner, EHF Cup winner, three times German champion, German Cup winner and lifted the Supercup several times.

Not to forget the unbelievable success as European champion in 2016. Left winger Dahmke has won almost everything there is to win - and is still far behind in comparison to his girlfriend.

The 29-year-old is dating Stine Bredal Oftedal.

And the name should even say something to male handball fans.

Oftedal is Norwegian and has amassed far more titles than many female athletes ever will.

The 31-year-old is a three-time world champion and five-time European champion, she has also won the Champions League twice and has been Hungarian champion and Hungarian cup winner three times.

She is currently under contract with Gyori ETO KC, her boyfriend Dahmke with THW Kiel.

Norwegian superstar Sander Sagosen, who is Dahmke's brother-in-law, also plays for the German club.

Sangosen married Oftedal's sister.

However, the defensive player Sagosen will only play with Dahmke until the summer, but they will still meet at family celebrations afterwards.

At the wedding in June 2022, the four posed side by side for a photo.

At the Handball World Cup, there could be an extended family duel in the intermediate round, live on German TV.

Sagosen, who has just recovered from a serious ankle injury, joins Norway in Group F against North Macedonia, Argentina and the Netherlands and is scheduled to face the German group.

By then at the latest, mixed feelings should also arise in the home of Oftedal.

One person who cannot travel to the Handball World Cup is ARD presenter Alexander Bommes.

As with the World Cup, he also missed the handball tournament due to illness.
