Petter Vaagan Moen (born February 5, 1984 in Hamar ) is a Norwegian football player .

Between 2005 and 2006 he was the captain of the Norwegian U-21 national team .

Club career

Moen began his career in the youth of his home club Ham-Kam , where he matured into one of the greatest Norwegian talents of his generation. In 2001, at the age of seventeen, he made his debut in the professional Ham-Kam team, and in the course of the 2002 season, he already fought for a regular place. In 2003 he celebrated as a key player the championship title in the Adeccoligaen and the associated rise to the top class.

At this point he was already one of the most sought-after talents in the country, but surprisingly remained loyal to his parent club for the time being. In the following season, the team, led by the old stars Jan Michaelsen and Geir Frigård, advanced to the surprise of the season and with fifth place in the table narrowly missed the qualification for an international competition. In the following season, the team could no longer hold the high level and got into the expected relegation battle, with Moen outshining the experienced players with strong performances and establishing himself at the highest level for the first time .

In 2006 he then moved to the big club Brann Bergen for the club's internal record transfer fee of 10 million Norwegian kroner , which put together a star-studded team around Norwegian national team captain Martin Andresen at great expense in order to end the supremacy of series champion Rosenborg Trondheim .

As a result, he immediately established himself as a regular player on the left wing and celebrated the runner-up title in the Adeccoligaen in his debut season. In the following year, he and Erik Huseklepp formed an outstanding wing tong, which with its templates played a major role in the top scorer title of star striker Thorstein Helstad and the first Brann championship title since 1963. With five goals, he also advanced to the team's third-best goalscorer behind Helstad and captain Andresen.

In the following two seasons, the team lost two key players who could not be replaced by the departures of Andresen to Vålerenga Oslo and Helstad to UC Le Mans . As a result, expectations increased on Moen, from whom one hoped a further increase in performance. Moen continued to play solidly and was never in danger of losing his regular place, but overall his development stagnated and came under criticism based on the high expectations.

It was not until 2010 that a surprising performance explosion followed. Brann got into the relegation battle for the first time in years, but Moen developed into a game-defining personality on the pitch, preparing five goals and shooting 14 himself. At the end of the season he was rewarded for the first time with a nomination for the Kniksenprisen as the best midfielder of the season.

During the season, Moen announced that he would leave the club in favor of a foreign transfer. After his strong performance in the club, a move to England became apparent. As a result, there were negotiations with the Premier League club Newcastle United and the Queens Park Rangers , with Moen opting for the then leader of the Football League Championship . The change was then officially announced on November 10, 2010. Moen made a free transfer and signed a three and a half year contract. At the Rangers he was planned by trainer Neil Warnock as an offensive relief for the midfield stars Alejandro Faurlín and Adel Taarabt .

National team

Already discovered as a youth player, Moen was used in all youth selections in his country.

In 2003 he took part in the European Football Championship in Liechtenstein with the U-19 national team. Norway was eliminated in the group third behind Portugal and Italy in the preliminary round. Moen was used in all three finals.

In 2004 he made his debut in the Norwegian U-21 national team, which he led as captain on the field from 2005.

On January 26, 2006 he made his debut under coach Åge Hareide as part of an international trip to North America in the 2-1 defeat in the friendly against Mexico in the senior team . Until the end of 2007 he was then part of the extended group of the national team and came on three more missions before he was no longer called up between 2008 and 2009 due to average performance in the club.

On November 17, 2010, after almost two years of abstinence, he celebrated his comeback on an international level in a 1: 2 away win in the friendly against Ireland under coach Egil Olsen .
