A win in the penultimate Eliteserien round at the same time as Haugesund lost their game ensured that Tromsø, with only a goal difference in margin, escaped the qualification line. – Haugesund won their playoff games against Moss, who must spend at least one more season in the OBOS-Liga.

Aiming for a slightly less exciting season next year!

Ruben Kristiansen has signed an agreement that extends through 2025. The Reisa native is a fast, technical and experienced defender who has played for Sportsklubben Brann in recent years.

  • Ruben is a local player who has delivered at a very high level over many years and most recently this year, says sports director Lars Petter Kræmer-Adress on TIL’s pages.

Kristiansen has many years of experience in top-flight football, and has clear ideas about how he wants to contribute in the next year.

  • I’m the type of person who wants to have the ball, I want us to play attacking football, entertain and score goals. Hope I can show it on the field, says Kristiansen.

The 36-year-old will sign a deal until 2025.

Kristiansen’s contract with Brann expires at the end of the year. He has played there since 2015.

The defender played in Tromsø from 2012 to 2014 before moving to Vålerenga. Kristiansen has a total of 70 games for TIL. Early in his career, he was in Skjervøy and Tromsdalen.
