Tor Ole Skullerud (born 10 December 1970) is a Norwegian football manager and former player.[1]
Club career
[edit]Skullerud was born Kongsvinger, Norway. He played for hometown club of the same name, before turning out for Ready, Frigg, Grue and Ullern.
Managerial career
[edit]Early career
[edit]Skullerud worked as a coach at Ullern and Bærum before taking over Norway's U-18 and U-19 teams. He was then appointed as assistant manager for Vålerenga, working under playing manager Martin Andresen.
Norway national youth teams
[edit]After being Per Joar Hansen's assistant in the under-21s, he took over as head coach in January 2013 after Hansen was appointed the new manager of Rosenborg.
He led Norway to the UEFA European Under-21 Championship in Israel. Norway was one of eight participating teams and finished second in their round with five points after a draw against the host nation Israel, a win against England and a draw with Italy. In the knockout phase, they faced eventual winners Spain, losing 3–0.
Skullerud was also briefly assistant coach under Per Mathias Høgmo with the men's national team. Skullerud is also a UEFA Prolis which is the highest education of coaches in Norway.
Molde
[edit]On 13 January 2014, he was presented as Ole Gunnar Solskjær's successor as head coach of Molde.[2] His first season with Molde was an instant success, winning the double as winners of both the league title and the Norwegian Cup, the club's first ever double. Molde won the league with an eleven-point gap down to main rivals Rosenborg, and their 71 points was a new record for most points in the league. On 1 July 2015, Molde announced that Skullerud had decided not to continue as head coach at Molde after the 2015 season due to family reasons.[3] After a run of mediocre results, culminating with Molde being eliminated by Dinamo Zagreb in the third qualifying round for the 2015–16 UEFA Champions League on 4 August, Skullerud was sacked on 6 August 2015.[4]
