Sindre Magne Rekdal (born 16 July 1970) is a Norwegian former football player, most notably for Molde FK.

Career[]

Molde[]

Rekdal started his senior career at Molde in 1988. On 3 July 1988, he made his debut for the club as a substitute in Molde's 2–2 draw at home ground against Vålerengen.[2] On 21 June 1992, he scored his first goal in Molde's 3–2 away win over Brann.[3] He was in the starting lineup in the final of the 1994 Norwegian Cup where Molde won the club's first major trophy after defeating Lyn 3–2 on 23 October.[4]

In his last season at Molde, Rekdal was removed from the first-team squad and placed in the reserve squad, allegedly to make room for younger players. His brother, Kjetil Rekdal later said that this move was a result of an earlier conflict between the club and his brother. [5] The conflict ended when Sindre Rekdal signed for Belgian side Eendracht Aalst later in the 1998 season. Rekdal played 123 top division games and scored 9 goals during his 11 seasons at Molde.

Belgium and later career[]

Rekdal signed for Eendracht Aalst in 1998 and spent a total of five seasons in Belgium, including a spell at Dender. In 2003, his last year as active footballer, Rekdal played one season for third tier side Follo.

Personal life[]

He is the brother of football coach and former Norway international and Molde player Kjetil Rekdal.
