Arnór Sigurðsson (born 15 May 1999) is an Icelandic professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder for EFL Championship club Blackburn Rovers and the Iceland national team.[1][2][3]

Club career

[edit]

Norrköping

[edit]

Arnór was described as a key player for Norrköping in the 2018 Allsvenskan season, where he played as an attacking midfielder.[4][5]

CSKA Moscow

[edit]

On 31 August 2018, Arnór signed a five-year contract with the Russian Premier League club CSKA Moscow.[6] The transfer fee was reportedly set at around 40 million Swedish kronor (approximately €4 million), a club record fee received by Norrköping.[7] He made his debut for CSKA on 19 September 2018 in a game against Viktoria Plzeň, and became the youngest Icelandic player ever to appear in a UEFA Champions League game.[8]

Arnór scored his first goal for CSKA on 7 November 2018 in a Champions League game against Roma.[9] Four days later, he scored his first Russian Premier League goal in a 2–0 victory over Zenit Saint Petersburg.[10] On 12 December 2018, Arnór scored a goal in a 3–0 win over Real Madrid in the Santiago Bernabéu.[11] On 6 April 2019, he scored twice in a 2–0 derby victory over Spartak Moscow.[citation needed]

Loan to Venezia

[edit]

On 30 July 2021, he joined Italian Serie A club Venezia on loan for the 2021–22 season. Before going on loan, he extended his contract with CSKA until 2024.[12]

Return to Norrköping

[edit]

On 3 July 2022, Arnór suspended his contract with CSKA Moscow for the 2022–23 season, having taken advantage of the FIFA ruling relating to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.[13] On 14 July 2022, he returned to Norrköping until June 2023 under these regulations.[14]

Blackburn Rovers

[edit]

On 21 June 2023, Arnór again exercised his right to move clubs and joined Blackburn Rovers for the 2023–24 season.[15] On 26 December 2023, the transfer was made permanent, and Arnór signed a contract with Blackburn until June 2025.[16]

International career

[edit]

Arnór made his senior debut for Iceland on 15 November 2018 in a 2018–19 UEFA Nations League A game against Belgium, as a starter.[17]
