Brian Tømming Hämäläinen (born 29 May 1989) is a Danish professional footballer who currently plays for the Belgian club Zulte Waregem.

Career

Brian started his professional career at Lyngby where he impressed and reached almost 100 matches in the top two Danish leagues. In May 2009 he went on trial with Lille OSC but later declined an offer to sign with the French side.

In 2011 he was bought by Zulte Waregem of Belgium. He started all matches in his first season at Zulte before transferring to top club Genk at the end of the season. He was never a great success at Genk during his four years there, appearing in only 31 league matches. In 2016 Zulte Waregem re-acquired him.
