Sweden Nannskog started up at
Högaborg, a small football club from his home city
Helsingborg in
Scania, the southernmost of Sweden, as a young boy. However, from the age 15 he quit football to concentrate on
handball. After some persuasion, he started to play football again at the age of 19. After his comeback, he played two seasons for Högaborg, before switching to
Allsvenskan side
Malmö FF. His time at the club was not particularly successful, but a goal he scored for them was very important as it sent Malmö to the
UEFA Cup. The next seasons were spent in Swedish second tier, the
Superettan. When he was 27, he was brought to
Landskrona BoIS, by coach
Janne Jönsson. His first season there they reached second place and got promoted, with Nannskog as the league's top scorer with 21 goals. He followed Landskrona up to Allsvenskan and did very well, becoming the club's top scorer with 11 goals, playing an important part in them finishing just above relegation play-off. In the middle of the Swedish 2003 season, he moved on to China. Nannskog played for Swedish Landskrona BoIS from 2001 when the club played in second tier
Superettan. He was involved in the promotion of Landskrona BoIS to Swedish top tier league, Allsvenskan. And his success continued during the following year. Already in the first match, Nannskog scored a goal as Landskrona BoIS in a remarkable match defeated their old rivals
Helsingborgs IF as Landskrona BoIS won 6–2 in front of an attendance of 12.000 at
Landskrona IP. Together with BoIS' other forward,
Danijel Milovanović, both of them became a feared top-duo that led their recently promoted club to the top position of
Allsvenskan at the break for
the World Cup in Japan and South Korea. After the eight first matches, Landskrona BoIS had won five matches, drawn three times and never lost. When forward colleague Milovanović got seriously injured against rivals
Malmö FF (an injury from which Milovanović never recovered), this surprising success ended for Nannskog's club, but Nannskog himself continued to score.
Sichuan Guancheng Nannskog left Landskrona BoIS in summer of 2003 to join the Chinese club
Sichuan Guancheng on a two-year deal. He went on to stay for a year-and a half, but terminated his contract in order to play for his old coach Janne Jönsson at
Stabæk in the 2005 season.
Stabæk 2005–2007 His first season at Stabæk was very successful, with his club being promoted in style. "The Body" Nannskog was also named top scorer with 27 goals in 29 games. applauding the fans after a match against
Vålerenga in June 2006. Nannskogs debut in the
Norwegian top division was successful. They finished fifth, just outside an UEFA Cup spot. Nannskog was crowned top scorer with his 19 goals, one goal ahead of team-mate
Veigar Páll Gunnarsson. Nannskog and Stabæk continued their progress, and for a second time in a row, he managed to score 19 goals, but this time finishing behind Brann's
Thorstein Helstad, who scored 22. However, Stabæk did better in the league, finishing second behind Brann. They were in front half way, but did not have the edge in the second part of the season.
2008–2010 Stabæk have played well in the first part of the 2008 season with Nannskog an integral part, like when he scored two goals in the away match against
Ham-Kam (2–0 victory) in round 5 . The Norwegian media felt it was time the
Sweden national team took a look at him again with a possible inclusion in the
Euro 2008 squad, following his winning goal against
Rosenborg on 4 May. However, he did not make the squad. On 14 September Nannskog scored four goals in a 6–0 victory over
Strømsgodset, taking him to the top of the goal scoring chart with 13 goals – helping Stabæk with a six-point advantage with six rounds to go. On 24 September, Nannskog scored two goals and made one assist in the semifinal of the
Norwegian Cup, helping Stabæk to a 3–0 victory over
Molde. A few days later, on 29 September Nannskog scored his 99th and 100th goal against Molde. This time in a league match. Stabæk won the league in stylish fashion. Nannskog was crowned top scorer of the league with his 16 goals, four more than fellow team-mate and Swede
Johan Andersson. He was denied 'the double' as they lost in the Norwegian Cup final against
Vålerenga. On 8 March Stabæk claimed their first trophy of the season when they won the Norwegian Superfinal against last season's cup winners Vålerenga by 3 goals to 1 with Nannskog scoring the opener. Nannskog scored a hat-trick on 5 April as Stabæk turned 1–3 to a 3–3 draw in the third league round. Nannskog was injured for just over a month before making a comeback on 24 May, scoring a brace in a 3–0 victory over
Start in the
Tippeligaen. He soon got injured again and so far only restricted him to 11 league games this season (5 goals). In total, Nannskog scored 123 goals in 172 games for Stabæk in all competitions. Nannskog failed to return from his injuries and subsequently retired from football. ==International career==
