Tore André Dahlum
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tore André "Totto" Dahlum (born June 21, 1968 in Kristiansand) is a former Norwegian footballer. Dahlum was a striker, and in his playing career, he had three spells at Start and two spells at Rosenborg. He also played briefly in Denmark, Greece and Belgium.
His career started in FK Vigør. Dahlum had his best years in the early 1990s. As a member of Start, he became the top goalscorer in the Norwegian Premier League in 1990, with 20 goals. He also made his international debut the same year. Overall, he played 15 internationals and scored six goals for Norway. His finest moment at international level was probably the European Championship qualifier against Italy in 1991, where Dahlum scored Norway's first goal in a 2-1 win.
In 1992, Dahlum was signed by Rosenborg, where he failed to live up to expectations, and was subsequently dropped by both the club and the national team. After two seasons at the Trondheim club, he returned to Start. Following Start's relegation in 1996, he had a short spell at Greek side Skoda Xanthi, before returning home the following year for a second spell at Rosenborg. He later played briefly at Belgian club K.A.A. Gent and Danish club AaB, before finishing his professional career in 2001 where it began, for his hometown club Start. He later played in the lower leagues with Flekkerøy IL.
After retiring he worked with football commentary for TV2. In November 2007 he was announced as the new coach of fourth-tier club FK Jerv. [1]
