Lars Hirschfeld

Canadian international goalkeeper Lars started his career playing indoor football with Edmonton Drillers before having a spell in Germany.

It was while playing for his country though, that he was spotted by Tottenham and he moved to North London in 2002 but found it difficult to win a first team spot and gladly accepted a loan move to Luton playing five League games for the Hatters in February and March 2003.

Moves to Dundee United and Leicester followed before he threw in his lot with Norwegian side Tromso where he was quickly voted the best goalkeeper in their history. Moving to Rosenborg in 2005, Lars helped his new side to the championship the following year.

A big money move to CFR Cluj in Romania followed, leading to transfers to Energie Cottbus and Valerenga before Lars accepted the role of goalkeeping coach at FC Edmonton in Canada.
