Glenn Peter Strömberg (born January 5, 1960) is a Swedish former footballer. He won the 1982 UEFA Cup with IFK Göteborg. Apart from Göteborg, he has also played for Benfica and Atalanta. He was voted Swedish footballer of the year, winning Guldbollen 1985.
Nowadays Strömberg is a popular expert commentary for Sveriges Television.
Although he has no managerial experience, he is widely regarded as the people's choice to succeed Lars Lagerbäck as head coach of the Sweden national football team. In interviews during the 2006 FIFA World Cup he has said that he is flattered to get mentioned as a potential candidate for the job and that he would think carefully about any offer from the Swedish Football Association.
