Sigurd Rushfeldt (born 11 December 1972) is a Norwegian football coach and former player who works as an assistant coach for Tromsø.
During his playing career, he played for Tromsø, Birmingham City, Rosenborg, Racing de Santander, and Austria Wien.
As a forward, he is well known for his strength and for being a prolific goalscorer.
Rushfeldt is the all-time top goal scorer of Eliteserien.
Rushfeldt scored 246 league goals in his career, including a record 172 in Eliteserien.
Rushfeldt was born in Vadsø, where he started his career in Vadsø Turn and Norild.
He helped his team to finishing runner-up in the league, equalling Tromsø's best ever season, 1990, when they also finished runners-up.
He was noticed by Tromsø, which signed him in 1992.
In Tromsø Rushfeldt got a reputation of being a prolific goalscorer as a forward.
This sparked interest from other clubs, and in 1995 he went on an unsuccessful loan spell with Birmingham where he scored just once in the League Cup against Tranmere Rovers.
It was not until the end of the 1996 season that Rushfeldt would move on.
He then signed for Rosenborg, but not before playing in the cup final that would be Rushfeldt's last match for Tromsø in his first spell with the club.
Rushfeldt scored Tromsø's second goal in the cup final securing a 2–1 win over rivals Bodø/Glimt.
With Rosenborg, Rushfeldt had great success.

He returned to Tromsø, which he had left in 1996, in July 2006.
When his contract with Austria Wien was nearing an end Rushfeldt declared that he wanted to end his career in Norway.
Several Norwegian clubs were interested in signing him.
He chose to return to Tromsø declaring that he felt drawn to the north, and that he wanted to follow his heart and therefore it had to be Tromsø.
In Tromsø, he was again paired up in front with former team-mate Ole Martin Årst, who also played in the 1996 cup final and had enjoyed a career as a professional player outside of Norway before he returned to Tromsø some years earlier.
The last time he won the Norwegian Premier League with Rosenborg in 2001, he was loaned in from Racing de Santander which he had transferred to in 1999.
His spell with Santander was not a great success and in 2001 Rushfeldt moved on again, this time to Austria Wien.
In Vienna he had success and won the league with Austria in 2003 and 2006 and was voted player of the year in the Austrian league 2004/2005.
In 2003, 2005 and 2006 he also won the cup with Austria Wien.
He scored 3 goals in these finals.
This partnership ended in July 2007, when Årst was sold.
In November 2007 Rushfeldt was selected to be in the Norwegian Premier league team of the year by a group of Norwegian newspapers, stating that he is invaluable as a target man.
