Stefán Gíslason (born 15 March 1980 in Fjarðabyggð) is an Icelandic retired footballer who last played for Breiðablik in the Icelandic Premier League as a defensive midfielder. Gíslason was renowned for coupling physical power with great technique and is the younger brother of fellow international player Valur Gíslason. As of 2015, he is currently manager of the reserve team at Breiðablik. ==Club career== As a youngster he was on the roster of English giants Arsenal, but limited playing time saw him returning to KR Reykjavík on a loan deal. He later played for Strømsgodset, Grazer AK and Keflavík before joining Lyn in 2005. Stefán immediately made an impression, and was eventually made vice captain. While at Lyn he played 62 league games out of a possible 65, scoring eight goals. He was sold to Brøndby in July 2007 and in February 2008 replaced Per Nielsen as captain. On 3 July 2009 Stefán was informed that he would no longer captain the side and that he would be free to leave the club at the end of the season. In recent time, Stefán has been linked to the Norwegian club Viking FK, were the former Norwegian national team coach Åge Hareide is coaching. He played on loan for Viking in early 2010. His situation in Brøndby had not become better, resulting in Stefán wishing to leave the club in the next transfer season. On 4 February 2011, Brøndby and Stefán agreed to cancel his contract with the club with immediate effect. The timing of that release effectively leaves Stefán in limbo because other clubs are unable to sign him until the summer of 2011 due to the transfer window rules.〔 Aberdeen manager Craig Brown stated on 21 February that he had been interested in signing Stefán until it was discovered he was ineligible to sign.〔 On 16 March 2011, Stefán was presented as the main event at the seasonal kick-off of Lillestrøm SK, signing a contract expiring on 1 August. However, after enduring a terrible run of five goalless losses, Lillestrøm decided to bring him back 29 September for the remainder of the 2011 season. On 10 January 2012, he signed for Belgian team Oud-Heverlee Leuven. In February 2014, Stefán signed a 3-year contract with Icelandic club Breiðablik. However, on 13 February 2015 he announced his riterement from professional football. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Stefán Gíslason」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
