Keld Kristensen (born 16 January 1952) is a Danish football manager and former player who works as a scout. [2] During his playing career, he featured as a right-back for B 1903 and B93. [1] He most notably managed F.C. Copenhagen.
Kristensen played most of his career at B 1903. Between 1970 and 1972 he played six games for various Denmark national youth sides. He scored one goal against the Netherlands under-19s on 8 August 1970. [3]
As a manager, he started in his old club B 1903. Later he returned to the club as assistant for Benny Johansen. When B 1903 merged with Kjøbenhavns Boldklub to form F.C. Copenhagen in 1992, Kristensen continued as Johansen's assistant. When Johansen stopped as manager in 1994, Kristensen was named new head coach. The club had a terrible start to the 1994-1995 season: In the UEFA Cup they only barely defeated Finnish side FC Jazz Pori, and after five games in the Superliga the club had lost three games and drawn two. Due to the bad results the board chose to sack Kristensen and replaced him with Johansen. [4]
