Norway's official tax list for the 2024 income year records his net wealth at NOK 62.4 million, about $6.6 million at the November 6, 2026 exchange rate. TV 2 printed the figure on December 3, 2025 in its tables of Norway's biggest sports names, alongside taxable income of NOK 5,631,271.

What the tax list shows

TV 2's table for income year 2024 lists Selnæs with income NOK 5,631,271 and net wealth NOK 62,435,924, registered in Trondheim. The list figures come straight from the Norwegian Tax Administration, which publishes every taxpayer's income, wealth and tax each year.

Net wealth on the list is assets minus debts at tax values. Homes are counted well below market price and shares at a discount, and money held through a holding company appears only through the value of its shares.

Career at a glance

Selnæs joined Rosenborg in 2009 after youth football at Sverresborg IF. He signed a professional contract on 25 March 2012 after an impressive pre-season, made his league debut as a late substitute against Lillestrøm on 1 April 2012 and started the following week at home to Sogndal. He was a regular in midfield in the first half of that season before an injury limited his chances.

He helped Rosenborg win the 2015 Tippeligaen and the 2015 Norwegian Cup and was named both Eliteserien Player of the Year and Midfielder of the Year. On 31 January 2016 he joined Saint-Étienne, then moved to Chinese Super League club Shenzhen FC on 9 February 2019 and signed a one-year deal with Zürich on 24 June 2022. He later returned to Rosenborg, where Wikipedia listed him as of November 2026.

About this figure

Norway publishes every taxpayer's income, net wealth and tax paid each year, and newspapers comb the lists for famous names. TV 2 printed Selnæs's figures for the 2024 income year. Net wealth on the list is the figure the Tax Administration assessed from his tax return, assets minus debts.

Tax values are lower than market values, especially for homes and shares, so the figure understates what Selnæs would be worth if everything were sold. We show it in Norwegian kroner, as published, with a rough US dollar conversion at the November 6, 2026 exchange rate. Income figures mentioned on this page are earnings for one year, not wealth.
