Hampus Wanne (born 10 December 1993) is a Swedish professional handballer for HØJ Elite and the Swedish national team.[1][2]

Hampus Wanne started his professional career at Elitserien club HK Aranäs.[3] In January 2013, he moved to the second division team Önnereds HK, the club that he started playing handball as a junior. At the end of the season, regarded as one of the greatest talents on the left wing position, Wanne signed a one-year contract with the Handball-Bundesliga team SG Flensburg-Handewitt for 2013/14 season.[4]

In his first season with the team, SG Flensburg-Handewitt qualified for the EHF Champions League final four in Cologne. In the semi-final game against Barcelona, he scored three goals after coming in as a substitute at 45th minute when Flensburg was down 24–29 and he played a crucial part in Flensburg's impressive 6–0 run in the final seven minutes of the regular time to force the game into an extra-time which also finished with a draw.[5][6] In the 7-meter shootout, Wanne scored the decisive penalty against Danijel Šarić and sent his team to the Champions League final.[5] Wanne did not take any part in the final match where Flensburg defeated their German rival THW Kiel 30–28 and reached the Champions League trophy for the first time in the club's history.[7] At the end of the season, Wanne extended his contract with Flensburg until the end of 2015/16 season.[8]

In 2015, Wanne became DHB-Pokal champion with his team after he scored once again the winning penalty in the 7-meter shootout against SC Magdeburg.[9]

In summer 2022, Wanne left SG Flensburg-Handewitt for FC Barcelona.[10]

At the 2020 Olympics he reached the quarterfinal.[15]

At the 2022 European Championship he was a key part of the Swedish team that won gold medals, playing 8 out of 9 games and scoring 45 goals.[16]
