Martin Gjone (born 29 May 2005) is a Norwegian footballer who plays as a centre-back for HamKam.

Career

[edit source]

He grew up in Kvelde and started his youth career there, continuing in Nanset IF. In 2020 he moved on to the U16 team of the region's largest team, Sandefjord Fotball.[2]

He appeared on the bench of the senior team for the first time in 2022,[3] and his debut came in April 2024, starting the match against Lillestrøm.[4]

On 19 October 2024, his would-be first Eliteserien goal against Molde was disallowed,[5] but on 27 October he scored his first Eliteserien goal as Sandefjord recorded a crucial 2–1 victory. He celebrated with a somersault.[6][7] He was also selected for Norway's youth national team.[8]

At the end of 2024, CIES found Gjone to be the #20 play-building centre-back among teenage players in Europe.[9] In early 2025, TV 2 named Gjone among the ten best teenagers of Eliteserien.[10]
