Victor Fors (born 11 March 1999) is a footballer who plays as a right-back for Kongsvinger. Born in Sweden, he represents Eritrea internationally.

Career

[edit]

Fors came up in the academy of IF Brommapojkarna and made his first-team debut in 2017, the year they won the 2017 Superettan.[2] He made two appearances for the Swedish futures team in 2015, followed by eeight appearances for Sweden U18 and U19 in 2017–2018.[3] From 2018 through 2020 he represented several clubs on the second, third and fourth tier around the Stockholm area: IK Frej, Assyriska FF, IFK Stocksund and IFK Haninge.[2] While he played in lower divisions in Stockholm, he worked on a garbage truck.[4]

Fors returned to the Superettan after three years' absence, when signing for AFC Eskilstuna ahead of the 2021 season.[5] He eventually served as team captain, but missed the entire 2023 season to a damaged cruciate ligament.[6] After AFC Eskilstuna faced relegation to the third tier, Fors left and signed for Raufoss IL in Norway. Reports also claimed he had been followed by Västerås SK.[7][8]

After two years in Raufoss, his contract was not renewed and he was picked up by a team in the same division, Kongsvinger IL.[9]

In 2026 he was also called up to play for Eritrea, alongside other members of the diaspora. Fors stated that he grew up in "a little Eritrea" in Stockholm.[10] He made his international debut in March in a two-legged face-off against Eswatini, where Eritrea won both legs.[1][11]
