Kurt Roland Hamrin (born November 19, 1934 in Stockholm, Sweden) was a Swedish footballer. He is currently the sixth highest goalscorer of all-time in Italy's Serie A.
Kurt first played for AIK in Sweden, whom he joined in the 1952-53 season. He then joined Juventus in 1956 and played 23 games in his only season there. After that one season, he joined Padova, where he scored 20 goals in 30 games. He would only stay there for one season again, however, and he then joined Fiorentina in 1958 and stayed until 1967, playing 289 Serie A games and scoring 150 goals. While at Fiorentina, he won the Coppa Italia in 1961 and 1966. He joined A.C. Milan in 1967 and played there for two seasons, winning the league in 1968. His final club was Napoli, whom he joined from Milan in 1969.
A member of "Exilgnagare" - a club for AIK supporters worldwide, Hamrin is probably one of the finest players the club ever produced and is still a big favourite among the supporters at the club. Hamrin, settled in Florence after his spell at Fiorentina, is still following his beloved AIK and usually makes the trip home every summer to catch a couple of games.
Hamrin played 32 times for Sweden, scoring 17 goals between 1953 and 1965.
