Squad9 Nov 2026

The knee: Ole Sand out for 15 days

15 days on the announcement, and a year of quiet, unwatched rehabilitation behind it. Rosenborg lose a player for a season; he loses something harder to name.

Market9 Nov 2026

Santeri Väänänen has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Rosenborg they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Squad9 Nov 2026

A falling-out at Rosenborg

Aslak Fonn Witry and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Match7 Nov 2026

The run at home goes on for Rosenborg

9 matches unbeaten here. Every visiting manager is asked about it in the week before, which is precisely why it keeps going.

Match7 Nov 2026

Emil Ceïde sends Rosenborg past KFUM Oslo

It finished 2‑0, and it was Emil Ceïde’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Rosenborg.

Player ratings9 Nov 2026

One of those days for Simen Bolkan Nordli

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.42, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

The dugout9 Nov 2026

The view from the dugout

“We controlled it. There were spells I did not like and we will look at them, but the group showed me something.” Stian Hauge, on a 2‑0 win that he was already picking apart on the walk to the press room.

The dugout9 Nov 2026

No hiding place for Mads Bomholt

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Mads Bomholt, and the manager let it.

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Squad2 Nov 2026

A knee injury of the worst kind for Ole Sand

24 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Rosenborg lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Squad2 Nov 2026

Leopold Wahlstedt stands alone

8 saves, and a scoreline the ten men in front of him had no right to. Goalkeepers only get noticed on the bad days; this was one of the other ones.

Match2 Nov 2026

Rosenborg are top

25 points and nobody above them. The word is not being said around the ground yet, and it is being thought in every seat.

Market2 Nov 2026

Aslak Fonn Witry raises the bar for Rosenborg

“I want to be playing for trophies while my legs still let me.” Nothing in that sentence is a transfer request, and nobody at Rosenborg heard it as anything else.

Squad2 Nov 2026

A falling-out at Rosenborg

Ole Selnæs and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Player ratings2 Nov 2026

Emil Ceïde runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 22. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Match31 Oct 2026

Bryne take the points off Rosenborg

Beaten 0‑2, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

The dugout2 Nov 2026

Sigurd Kvile gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Boardroom2 Nov 2026

$6.1M on the table at Rosenborg

The board have answered with money instead of encouragement, which is the only answer a manager ever wants. Spending it well is now entirely his problem.

Match24 Oct 2026

Rosenborg run riot against Haugesund

6‑2, and the margin flattered nobody — it could have carried another goal or two without complaint. Afternoons like this are why people keep coming.

Squad26 Oct 2026

A knee injury of the worst kind for Ole Sand

33 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Rosenborg lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Squad26 Oct 2026

A day Amin Chiakha will not forget

4 goals in one game. The first was taken well, the second was taken greedily, and by the third the crowd were simply waiting for him to get the ball.

Player ratings26 Oct 2026

Amin Chiakha, 20, plays like he has been here for years — 9.99

A mark of 9.99 means one thing beside a twenty-nine-year-old's name and something else entirely beside a 20-year-old's. Nobody at the ground needed telling which this was.

Squad26 Oct 2026

At 20, Amin Chiakha is already the best thing here

An average of 7.05 in a first team he is several years too young for. Rosenborg have something, and by now the whole division has noticed.

Match24 Oct 2026

Nobody could stop scoring

8 goals. Both benches spent the second half looking at each other rather than at the pitch. Purists will complain about Rosenborg and Haugesund in equal measure; everybody else had a wonderful time.

Match24 Oct 2026

Whatever happens, Rosenborg do not lose

6 games unbeaten now. Some were earned and some were survived, but a habit is forming — and habits are the hardest thing in football to play against.

Squad26 Oct 2026

A falling-out at Rosenborg

Adrian Pereira and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Match24 Oct 2026

Nobody wins at Rosenborg

8 home matches unbeaten. Visiting sides arrive already talking about the atmosphere, which is usually the sign that they have half-lost before kickoff.

Squad19 Oct 2026

A knee injury of the worst kind for Ole Sand

40 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Rosenborg lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Squad19 Oct 2026

Mads Bomholt is a better footballer than he was

Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 20 he is doing things at this level he could not do at the start of the season, and the coaching staff will tell you exactly which of them.

Squad19 Oct 2026

Adrian Pereira in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Rosenborg this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match17 Oct 2026

No time for Bodo/Glimt to settle

The goal that put Bodo/Glimt ahead was still being replayed on the concourse when Rosenborg equalised, 1 minutes later. Leads are only worth what you do with them.

Match17 Oct 2026

After 4 games, Rosenborg finally taste it again

The first defeat in 4 matches. The manager will say it had to come; the dressing room will say it did not have to come against Bodo/Glimt; the supporters will say both, in that order, all week.

The dugout19 Oct 2026

When it matters, Dino Islamović plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

Match17 Oct 2026

Rosenborg share the spoils with Bodo/Glimt

A 1‑1 draw with Bodo/Glimt leaves the dressing room somewhere between relief and regret.

The dugout19 Oct 2026

Stian Hauge on the point

“A point is a point and I will take it, but we should have had all three.” Stian Hauge after the 1‑1 draw, and the sentence every manager in the country said at some stage this weekend.

The dugout19 Oct 2026

The form table has caught Jonas Mortensen

Somebody else has been better, the manager has said so with a team sheet, and there is no argument to be had. He will get the shirt back the only way it can be got back.
