Søren Berg (born May 15, 1976 in Odense, Denmark) is a Danish professional football (soccer) player who currently plays as a striker or right winger for Viking F.K. in the Norwegian Premier League. He has twice been selected for the Denmark national football team.

Starting his career at Danish amateur clubs, he moved to top-flight club Odense BK in the Danish Superliga in 2000. Playing as either a right winger or striker, he was part of the Odense team that won the 2002 Danish Cup, and he made his debut for the Danish national team in April 2003. After a successful 2005-06 season, where he was called up for his second Danish national team game in March 2006, he attracted the interest of Norwegian team Viking FK. He was spotted in Stavanger by a journalist, where he received a contract offer from the Norwegian club. In June 6, 2006, it was reported that Berg had accepted the contract offer,^[1] and the club confirmed the signing three days later.^[2]
