Arne Erlandsen (born 20 December 1959) is a Norwegian football manager and former footballer. During his own playing career he had relative success as a midfielder, having played for Lillestrøm SK and Swedish team Djurgårdens IF as well as 20 matches for Norway. He managed another Swedish team, IFK Göteborg, between November 2004 and September 2006.
Arne Erlandsen took over Lillestrøm SK in 1998. His biggest achievement during this period was an unexpected silver medal in 2001, after having lost the title race to bookies favourites Rosenborg BK.
During his two seasons in IFK Göteborg, Erlandsen grabbed 76 points in 42 matches, an average of 1.81 points per match. This is the third best performance ever by a Norwegian manager abroad.
On 13 November 2006 Erlandsen was hired as head coach of HamKam, which played in the Norwegian Second Division. On 11 June 2009 he was fired due to many losses.
During his time in Ham-Kam he managed to coach the team back into the Norwegian Premier League one time.
In the middle of the 2010 season Erlandsen was appointed by Ullensaker/Kisa as their new coach. He saved the club from relegation to the Norwegian Third Division this autumn, and decided to sign for another year.
In 2011 Ullensaker/Kisa was promoted to Adeccoligaen for the first time in history. On 16 October 2011 Ull/Kisa won 4-1 against Tiller IL, when Lørenskog IF at the same time played a 3-3 draw against KFUM Oslo, which meant that Ull/Kisa was five points ahead, with only one match left to play.
