Thomas Thomasberg (born 15 October 1974) is a Danish professional football manager and former player, who is the current head coach of Danish Superliga club Randers FC.

Playing career[]

As a youth player, Thomasberg played for hometown club Haverslev IF as well as Aars IK,[1] before joining AaB in 1991. He made his debut for the first team only in 1994, after having played for the reserves in the fourth-tier Denmark Series for a number of seasons.[2] Thomasberg played for AaB until 1999, after which he moved to FC Midtjylland. He won the Danish Superliga championship as a player with AaB in both the 1994–95 and 1998–99 seasons.[3] In 1990, he also gained four caps for the Denmark under-16 team.[4]

Managerial career[]

In 2004, Thomasberg announced his retirement and became assistant coach to Erik Rasmussen at FC Midtjylland. He later became Rasmussen's successor as the head coach. He remained in that position for a year before being dismissed on 11 August 2009 and replaced by Allan Kuhn after to a poor start to the season.[5]

Later that year, it was confirmed that Thomasberg would take over as head coach of FC Hjørring from 1 January 2010.[6] He held that position for half a year, during which he managed to lead the club to promotion the second-tier 1st Division. Thomasberg then became the head coach of FC Fredericia, who, however, discontinued their collaboration with Thomasberg on 8 April 2013.[7]

After being an assistant at Randers FC in the period 2013–16,[8] Thomasberg was presented as the new head coach for Hobro IK in the 1st Division on 5 January 2017 on a contract running until the summer of 2018.[9]

Thomasberg since took over as head coach of Randers FC. He was originally supposed to have stepped into the role on 1 October 2018,[10] but Randers and Hobro reached an agreement that enabled Thomasberg to take over with immediate effect in his new club as of 16 June 2018.[11]
