Bent Skammelsrud

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bent Skammelsrud (born May 18th, 1966 in Rakkestad) is a former Norwegian football player, most known as an important midfielder for Rosenborg B.K.. Before joining Rosenborg, he had played for Drøbak/Frogn, Frigg, and the Swedish club Malmö FF. He also played 38 matches for the Norwegian national team, scoring 6 goals. He was in roster for Euro 2000.

Except from his debut season in 1991, Skammelsrud won the Norwegian Premier League every season as a Rosenborg player. He was also a key player in the club's UEFA Champions League matches during the last half of the 1990s. He played for Bayer Leverkusen for a very short period, before he returned to Rosenborg because of family reasons.

Skammelsrud left Rosenborg after the 2002 season, unwillingly, after Åge Hareide didn't renew his contract with the club.
