Biography
Brede Hangeland is a defender for Norway and Fulham in the English Premier League. Hangeland is a tall, strong centre-back who enjoys the challenge of playing against big, physical strikers such as Didier Drogba. He is calm when he has the ball at his feet, and has formed a good partnership in the centre with Aaron Hughes. Hangeland is Norway’s captain, and leads by example, getting bone-crunching challenges in early to bring confidence to his team-mates.
