Club career[edit]

Stabæk[edit]

Rogne started his career with Norwegian club Stabæk. He missed the entire 2008 season after tearing the anterior cruiciate ligament in his knee in a pre-season friendly against Russian side Krylia Sovetov in La Manga.[2] He played for Stabæk in UEFA Champions League qualifying matches against FC Copenhagen[2] and Valencia,[3] and also represented the club in the Europa League.[4]

Celtic[edit]

Rogne signed for Celtic on 20 January 2010,[5] and joined on a three and a half year contract.[6] Ex-Celtic player Vidar Riseth described him as "the best young talent to come out for Norway in the past ten years".[7] Rogne was given the number 25 shirt.[8]

On 10 February 2010, Rogne made his Celtic debut coming on as a substitute for Glenn Loovens in a 2–0 home win against Hearts in the SPL.[9] He made his first start for Celtic at home against Dundee United in a 1–0 victory on 20 February 2010,[3] he played very well and impressed the coach Tony Mowbray.[10] Rogne impressed against Rangers on 28 February 2010[11] but was taken off due to a hamstring injury.[12] He returned two months later in an away game against Dundee United[13] but once again had to leave the field early through injury.[14]

Rogne made his first competitive start of the 2010-11 season for Celtic against St Johnstone in a 3–0 win.[15][16] In the following game he was sent off for a professional foul against Aberdeen.[17][18] Despite this, Celtic went on to win the game by a record-breaking 9–0 score.[18] He scored his first goal for Celtic in a 1–1 draw against Kilmarnock in December 2010.[19] Rogne won many plaudits for his performance as Celtic beat Rangers 2–0 at Ibrox in the 2011 New Year derby.[20][21][22] He scored his second goal for Celtic against Aberdeen in the League Cup semi-final on 29 January 2011.[23]

On 25 March 2012, he scored in Celtic's 3-2 defeat to Rangers at Ibrox.[24]

International career[edit]

Rogne has represented Norway at youth level, and played for the under-19 team in the 2009 UEFA Under-19 Championship qualification.[4] Rogne was later captain of the under-21 team,[5][15] and were playing alongside the captain Stefan Strandberg in the central defence when Norway U21 qualified for the 2013 UEFA European Under-21 Football Championship.[25]

In March 2011, he received his first call-up to the Norway senior side for their Euro 2012 qualification match with Denmark but did not feature.[26]

Rogne made his senior debut for Norway on 29 February 2012 in a 3-0 friendly win against Northern Ireland.[27][28]
