Jon Anders Larsen is a Craitish footballer, who currently captains Cherry Trees FC. Having won trophies in both Riponia and Craitland, as well as intermicronational titles with the national team, Larsen stands as one of the most successful Craitish footballers of all time, also holding the record as one of the first Craitish players to win the EMUFA Champions' League and EMUFA Super Cup. Although predominantly a right-sided defender, he is known for his versatile nature, being able to play on either flank in both defence and midfield, as well as being one of the best free-kick takers on Micras.


Club Career

A native of Hänävissen-ó-Cräiteland, Larsen joined his hometown club Hänävissen-ó-Cräiteland as a youngster. Despite being a right-sided defender, he was shifted to the left-side at youth level to accommodate Zyx Yaqinsen, where he formed a friendship and strong partnership down the flank with fellow Craitish national team-mate Marko Edmildón. However, despite the partnership, Larsen never made it to the first team and was often seen behind Yaqinsen in the club's pecking order, and was subsequently sold to Edmildón United in 2005.

Having been deemed surplus to requirements by HóC, Larsen joined the League 2 side for a fee of just Cr 1000, where his career took off as he became one of the promising defenders outside the CrFA League 1, often being credited for his strong tackling and reading of the game. Having previously been shifted out to the left, Larsen returned to the right-side of the defence under Edmildón United's 3-5-2 formation, regularly being cited for his good anticipation and positioning. Excellent performances led to interest from League 1, as well as abroad.

At the age of 23, Larsen joined Riponian club Port Rackham Rangers for a mere fee of Cr 110,000, where his career evolved, becoming one of the most important players in Francisco Gutiérrez's squad. Under the guidance of Gutiérrez at Port Rackham, Larsen was utilised as an right-back, albeit in a 4-4-2 formation where he was encouraged to constantly drive forward, helping him to become one of the most powerful, attacking full backs in the game. Further attacking displays saw a shift further up the field, playing as a right midfielder, as well as occasionally filling in on the left side whenever needed.

Larsen was handed vice-captaincy of the club in 2007 behind captain Sébastien Focán, in which proved to be his most successful year at the club. Having won the EMUFA Champions League and Riponian Premier League, he went on to defeat his hometown club HóC in the EMUFA Super Cup, captaining the side as well as taking revenge by scoring the opening the scoreline as Port Rackham swept the opposition away by winning 3-0.

Despite all the success in Riponia, Larsen left the club in 2008 following the demise of the Riponian Premier League, joining Cherry Trees on a free transfer. As with Port Rackham, he retained his role as a attacking full back, also taking over the set piece duties at Oesst Whiteside. In 2012, he was appointed club captain following the appointment of Paul Pellegrino as interim club coach.

International Career

Having won his first cap in 2007, Larsen went on to win several World Cups and 1 EMU Championship. A regular mainstay in the Craitish team until 2012, he often deputised as team captain in any case where Manta Pellegrino was unavailable.
