Dag Alexander Olsen (born 9 September 1989) is a Norwegian professional footballer who plays as a forward or winger.[1]

Club career

After finishing his graduation in Tottenham Hotspur's youth setup, Olsen signed with Valencia CF.[2][3] He made his senior debuts with the reserves in the 2008–09 season, in Segunda División B. Olsen also appeared three times with the main team, starting in a 1–1 away draw against Al Ain FC and scoring twice vs Standard Liege.[4]

After being sparingly used in his third season, Olsen left the Valencians and signed with Odd Grenland BK.[5] On 2 September he made his debut, coming on as a late substitute in a 1–0 away win over FK Haugesund.[6]

On 29 October 2013, Olsen returned to Spain, signing with CD Castellón until 23 December, to get back to fitness after a crucial ligament rupture in Norway.[7] In March the following year he moved teams and countries again, signing a one-year deal with Fredrikstad FK.[8] Ahead of the 2016 season he returned home to Gjøvik and FK Gjøvik-Lyn.
