Brattbakk ends his career

After a ten-day of thinking, Harald Brattbakk has decided to permanently take off his football shoes.
The all-time top scorer of Norwegian football has gotten several offers from other clubs after his RBK contract was cancelled last Monday, but now he chooses to end the career.
"The tought of doing something completely different was more tempting than continuing a bit longer with the game. In addition, a continued career in another club probably would have costed more than it tasted," Brattbakk tells rbk.no.
And so it ends. Brattbakk stops on 151 goals in 224 league games for RBK, 166 on 255 league games total, and a whooping 256 goals on 347 mandatory games for Rosenborg.
The 35-year old isn't quite certain what he will be doing next.
"For the first time since I don't know when, all possibilities are open! I am not tied to anything professionally, so it will be exciting to see what the future holds," the RBK legend ends.
