Knut-André Skjærstein

Knut André Skjærstein (born 6 July 1995) is a Norwegian footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Strømmen IF.

Career He hails from Kolbotn

In January 2020 he was on trial with Eliteserien team Aalesund. He was eventually signed to the first tier by Lillestrøm SK in August 2021.

He made his Eliteserien debut in September 2021 against Brann. However he did not break through and was loaned out to Egersund in 2023. After they secured promotion to the 2024 1. divisjon, the move was made permanent. He was their first-choice goalkeeper until a blood clot hospitalized him and halted his career.

He was released and spent the first half of 2025 without a club. In June 2025, he was picked up by Eliteserien club Kristiansund BK who faced a crisis with their existing goalkeepers being injured. He made his KBK debut against Rosenborg. Then, in the 2025 cup tie against Stabæk, Skjærstein became the "hero" by saving two efforts in the penalty shootout. After Kristiansund's other goalkeepers returnd from injury, Skjærstein moved on and signed for Strømmen in 2026.
