Martin Andresen (born 2 February 1977) is a Norwegian former professional football player[1] and manager, who played as a central midfielder.
He was a regular on many Norway national youth teams while playing for Moss, Viking and Stabæk Fotball from 1995 to 1999.
After the 1999 season, Andresen was sold to Premier League club Wimbledon in a deal worth £1 million.
Many clubs in Norway were interested in the national team captain; the high price scared many away, including the champions Rosenborg.
He retired as a player before the 2010 season, but continued to play several matches for the reserve team in the Norwegian Second Division.
[5] Andresen came out for retirement for a second time on 18 August 2015, and joined Sandefjord Fotball for the remainder of the 2015 Tippeligaen season.
[1] Andresen made his debut for Norway national team in a 15 August 2001 friendly match against Turkey and earned a total of 43 caps, scoring three goals.
