The Danish handball star Mikkel Hansen is one of the best players in the world.
He has private support from his wife and two children.
Aalborg - From January 11th to 29th the Handball World Championship will take place in Sweden and Poland.
It's where the world's best players meet and receive more attention than they have for the rest of the year.
The German team meets Qatar, Algeria and Serbia in the preliminary round of Group E.
While the DHB team is more defined by team spirit, other nations have real superstars.
The Danes have Mikkel Hansen.

Hansen is a three-time world handball player and is considered an absolute megastar in handball.
Not only his quality as a defender, but also his visual appearance is striking.
Long, blond hair reminiscent of the action film character Thor is his trademark.
Many fans immediately fall for the sporty Hansen, an influencer once did at a music festival – but in private.
In 2017, Stephanie Gundelach posted a photo from the Roskilde Festival.
The handball player met Gundelach, a Danish influencer who is slightly older, at the music event.
A meeting that changed their lives forever.
They became a couple, had a child, married and had a second child.
She is a stylist, Hansen's hobby is art.
The apartment in the 8th arrondissement of Paris was full of art objects, as alt.dk wrote in an article about the time at Paris Saint-Germain.
He continues to pose next to purchased items or his children on Instagram.
Hansen, who is now 35, has been playing for Aalborg since 2022.
The triple world handball player played in the French capital for ten years and became champion nine times.
In the jersey of the Danish national team, he won the Olympics in 2016, the European Championships in 2012 and the World Championships in 2019 and 2021.
Defending the title will be Denmark's goal as they meet Belgium, Bahrain and Tunisia in Group H.

Will Hansen also meet Germany and Rune Dahmke?
In the second round, the two would avoid each other.
Dahmke is with a world handball player, his brother-in-law is a superstar from Norway.
