Ole Erik Midtskogen (born 12 April 1995) is a Norwegian professional footballer who plays as a striker for Odd.
[2] He spent 2020 with Faroese club KÍ Klaksvík before starting the 2021 campaign with Irish side Dundalk.
[3] Being the only Norwegian in the Faroese top flight at the time, his stay there as well as in Ireland was marred by little social contact due to the pandemic.
Whilst not scoring during his first two games, he was lauded by pundits, including TV 2's Jesper Mathisen, for his physical play both offensively and defensively.
During his childhood, Midtskogen was a cross-country skier and finished among the top 10 in Hovedlandsrennet, a national competition for the 14 age group.
