Born 1969. Pontus Kåmark is a Swedish association football player.
Sven Pontus Kåmark (; born 5 April 1969) is a Swedish former professional footballer who played as a defender. He played for Västerås SK, IFK Göteborg, Leicester City and AIK, and won 57 caps for the Sweden national team. He was part of the Swedish team that finished third at the 1994 FIFA World Cup.
Club career Kåmark started off his career with IK Franke before making his senior debut for Västerås SK.
IFK Göteborg Kåmark signed with IFK Göteborg ahead of the 1989 season and made his debut on 11 May 1989 in a league game against GAIS that ended 2–2. In 1990, Kåmark won his first league title with Göteborg, appearing in 8 league games. Kåmark played in all 180 minutes as the captain when IFK Göteborg was eliminated by FC Bayern Munich on away goals in the quarter-finals.
Leicester City Kåmark was bought by Leicester City from Göteborg for £840,000 in September 1995, but did not join the team until IFK Göteborg had lifted the 1995 Allsvenskan trophy. Only three days after making his debut for the club, Kåmark tore his ACL in a League Cup game against Bolton Wanderers, which ruled him out of football for a year. AIK was able to keep a clean sheet in all 12 of Kåmark's first games for the club.
