Rosenborg wants to buy Start's captain Atle Roar Håland.
Date of birth: 26.07.77
Height/weight:: 187 cm / 81 kg
Position: defence
Club: Start
Former clubs: Mandalskameratene, Vålerenga, Cleveland State University og Kvinesdal
League games/goals 2006: 15/0
"Even though Atle primarily wants to go to a foreign club, we will contact Rosenborg and listen to their offer," Håland's agent Stig Lillejord tells local Trondheim daily Adresseavisa.
The question is wether the last year's silver medallists want to sell the stalwart central defender, who made his debut on the national team against Senegal this March.
"We do not know wether and when Start is interested in selling. Hence, it is unclear wether we can get him this season. But Håland is a good player, and of interest for us," Rune Bratseth says.
