Aaron Kiil Olsen raises the bar for Valerenga

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

Tempers go at Valerenga

Henrik Skogvold was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Home is on Haris Berbić's mind

“Some mornings you wake up and you are still a long way from everything you know.” It is not the football and it never was; Valerenga are dealing with a man who wants a different country.

Thomas Elyounoussi signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Thomas Elyounoussi commits to Valerenga for another 4 years.

Brice Ambina gets picked when it counts

Every manager keeps a short list in his head of the men he wants on the pitch when the stakes rise, and it is never published. The team sheets for the big afternoons say Brice Ambina is on it.

No hiding place for Magnus Bjørnstad

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

Market1 Jan 2029

Talks stall between Valerenga and Haris Berbić

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.

The Håkon Sjåtil question follows Valerenga around

Every press conference now starts and ends the same way: with Håkon Sjåtil’s future. The manager has run out of new ways to say nothing.

Boardroom4 Dec 2028

Valerenga are in Europe

Qualification is done, and next season the floodlights come on for something bigger. A stage for the players, oxygen for the accounts and a passport for everybody else.

Sebastian Jensen gets the move he always wanted

Footballers are asked about their boyhood club so often that nobody listens to the answer. Sebastian Jensen has just signed for Valerenga, and for once the answer mattered.

Words at Valerenga training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Henrik Skogvold is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Magnus King steps up from the Valerenga academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Magnus King has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

Valerenga promote Mathias Meling from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Mathias Meling has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

Alexander Pedersen steps up from the Valerenga academy

Words exchanged at Valerenga

Petter Strand and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

A promise honoured for Mohamed Ofkir

It is not much of a headline and it is the reason players believe the next promise. Valerenga told Mohamed Ofkir something would happen and then it happened, which in this industry passes for remarkable.
