Åge Hareide

I’ve just seen the news about Åge Hareide. Manchester City’s first Norwegian player has died at the age of 72. I remember seeing ‘Oggy’, as we called him/chanted his name, when he first arrived.

Åge only managed 24 games for the Blues during an odd period for the club. He played from 1981 to 1982 and later managed Norway, Denmark and Iceland during an incredible 54 year career as player and manager. My thoughts are with his family and friends.
