Stian Kristensen

Stian Kristiansen came through IK Junkeren before earning a move to Bodø/Glimt, a step that put him alongside one of Norway's strongest sides. He spent two seasons there before moving on to Sandefjord Fotball, where he settled into regular football. In the summer of 2026 he joined Lillestrøm, taking the number 47 shirt with the Eliteserien club.

A centre-back by trade, Kristiansen has built his career through steady progression rather than a single defining moment, moving from a smaller Norwegian side up through the top flight in stages. Brønnøysund-born, he has followed the well-worn route for many Norwegian defenders: a spell at a big club to sharpen his game, followed by a return to first-team football elsewhere before a bigger opportunity arrives.

At Lillestrøm he will be expected to add depth and competition at the back as the club looks to keep its defensive line solid through the season.
