Career

Cramer spent the 2010 season with Asker on loan.[1] He was also loaned out to Asker in the 2011 season and played 17 matches for the club in the First Division.[2] Strømsgodset used their option to recall Cramer in August 2011, and he made his debut in Eliteserien against Odd Grenland on 2 October 2011, when Adam Larsen Kwarasey was benched by head coach Ronny Deila.[3]

Cramer has represented Norway at youth level, and played two matches for the under-19 team in 2010, one match for the under-21 team in 2011 and one match for the Norway national under-23 football team|under-23 team in 2012.[4]

Cramer retired from professional football when his contract with Aalesund ran out after the 2016-season, to focus on a medical degree at the University of Bergen.[5] On September 6, 2017, however, he signed a short-term contract with SK Brann as they were in dire need of goalkeepers for the remainder of the 2017 season.[6]
