'Ólafur "Ole" Gottskálksson' (born March 12, 1968 in Keflavík) is an Icelandic former professional football goalkeeper. He played five times for the Iceland national side.
Ole Gottskálksson played for IA Akranes and KR Reykjavík before joining Scottish side Hibernian from Keflavik ÍF in July 1997 for a fee of £200,000. He played 70 times for Hibs before joining Brentford on a free transfer in May 2000. He played 73 league games for Brentford, at one point having to pay for his own goalkeeping coach, before returning to Iceland to play for Grindavik.
On his return to the UK he played for non-league side Margate before joining Torquay United in September 2004 as a replacement for the departing Arjan van Heusden. He played 15 league games for Torquay before disappearing.
According to Torquay chairman Michael Bateson as quoted by Tom Adams in the Skysports website, doping testers arrived at Plainmoor in January 2005 for routine testing and Gottskálksson was chosen to give a sample. On viewing the list of banned substances he fled Torquay, leaving his girlfriend behind without an explanation. [1] In June 2005, the English Football Association announced that an independent disciplinary commission had banned Gottskálksson from football indefinitely for failing to take that drugs test. [2]
