Glenn Arne Hansen (born 20 September 1972) is a retired Norwegian football goalkeeper.

After half a year on Langhus's senior team in 1989, he joined the region's prime team Drøbak-Frogn in 1990. [1] He played the 1992 season in Ski, then returned to Drøbak-Frogn. [2] [3]

In March 1996 Hansen was loaned out to Bradford City, trying his luck in reserve matches. However, in late May 1996 the Norwegian top-flight team Strømsgodset was bereft of goalkeepers, and Hansen agreed on a loan to them. [4] [5] [6] He then joined Strømsgodset on a permanent basis, playing there until 2001. He then had a nine-year stint in Follo, staying with them until the 2010 Norwegian Football Cup Final which Follo lost to Hansens former team Strømsgodset. Hansen then played two seasons for then-second-tier Nesodden, then one season each in Drøbak-Frogn, Nesodden and Langhus before retiring as a 43-year old. He joined Ski's coaching setup and even featured for the club's fifth-tier senior team. [7]
