Gamle Oslo Fotballklubb is a Norwegianassociation football club fromOslo.
The club was founded byAdam Larsen Kwarasey, David Driscoll, Kelepha Sarr and Andreas Holzweiler in 2017. The club started its league existence by taking over the licence ofHammersborg FK, which went defunct. Kwarasey became manager andHolzweiler shirt sponsors. However, the club was denied its desired name, FC Oslo, because it was deemed to pretentious.[1][2]

The team then reached the first round of the2022 Norwegian Football Cup.[2] The climb was aided by signing several former professional players, many with ties toVålerenga, includingMuhamed Keita.[3]
