Carl Oliver Zandén (born 14 August 2001) is a Swedish professional footballer who plays as a left-back for Danish Superliga side Randers FC, on loan from Ligue 1 club Toulouse.

Club career[edit]

Born in Alingsås, Västergötland,[1] Zandén started his career at hometown club Gerdskens BK, before joining the youth ranks of Elfsborg in 2016 at the age of 15. During the time in the club's youth system, he played in the UEFA Youth League.[3]

On 19 July 2022, Zandén signed with Toulouse in France.[4] In his first season in France, he only managed just over 230 minutes of playing time, while also making a few appearances for the club's reserve team. In June 2023, Zandén underwent surgery and was out for three months. In January 2024, Zandén moved to Danish Superliga club Randers FC on a one-year lease with an option to buy.[5]
