A quick Google search suggests he's a centre half/defensive mid ;)

 

30 caps for Norway. Could be a replacement for Taylor if he moves on.

 

one news story about him refusing one contract offer and the lad needs a replacement?

 

:icon_lol:

Hangeland is a great prospect, and fairly cheap. One of the better players on the norwegian national team. Was at fault for one of the Greece goals but I'd have him here in a flash.

 

He's 26, hardly a prospect anymore. If he was owt decent he would have been shifted away from the Scandinavian leagues and be playing for a more recognised European team.

Aye, lets not buy people from divisions other than Serie A, Primera, Bundesliga and League 1. Hes played in the CL against United and had a cracking match there. Hes performed well for the national team over time. I dont see why not? At least not for a few mill quid.

 

I was sure he was younger than that but you're probably right, but still, 26 is hardly old, now is it?

 

edit: Think he was in team of the year in Denmark as well? Not sure tho. Bottom line is, good player for non-silly amount of cash.
