List of Eliteserien top scorers

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Norwegian top scorers)

List of top goal scorers in the top flight of Norwegian football, currently known as Eliteserien. The statistics begin with the 1948–49 season. The League of Norway, played from 1937–38 to 1947–48, was divided in eleven conferences with different numbers of game weeks and is therefore not included in this statistics.
