Rosenborg BK currently has 26 players in its first-team squad. The average age of the squad is 24.5 years, indicating a mix of experience and youthful energy. Nine of these players are foreign, accounting for 34.6 percent of the entire roster. The club also has two players who are full internationals for their respective countries.
This is a squad that plays its home matches at Lerkendal Stadion, an arena with 21,510 seats. The club's current transfer record shows a net gain of €18.25 million, pointing to sound recent financial management.
Rosenborg's position in the Eliteserien provides key context for assessing the squad. As of 28 August 2026, the team is in 7th place with 24 points, taken from 7 wins, 3 draws, and 7 losses over 17 matches. Their recent form is promising with four wins in their last five games, noted as WWLWW.
The team's offensive and defensive performance is also clear. They have scored 25 goals and conceded 22, giving them a positive goal difference of +3. However, there is a significant gap to the top of the table, as Rosenborg currently trails league leaders Bodø/Glimt by a full 17 points.
The immediate context for these figures is a highly important away fixture. Rosenborg BK travels north to face Bodø/Glimt on 30 August 2026. This is a clash against the current table-toppers, representing a major challenge and an opportunity to close the gap.
The match comes after a period of good form, providing grounds for optimism. A victory in such a top-of-the-table encounter would be a significant boost for the team's confidence and for their ambitions for the remainder of the season.
