Arne Legernes (born 18 May 1931 in Molde) is a retired Norwegian footballer.
He played for Molde (1945–53) along with his brothers Odd, Bjørn and Tore Legernes. Because of electrical engineering-studies in Trondheim, he transferred to first-tier team Freidig in 1954, but came back to Molde in 1956 and contributed to Molde's promotion to 1957-58 Norwegian Main League. He played one match for Molde in Norwegian Main League against Sandefjord on 28 July 1957, before he moved to Larvik. In Larvik he had gotten a new job and started to play for Larvik Turn, where he played the rest of his active career.[1]
Legernes also played for the Norwegian national team 45 times and scored 1 goal.[2]
In 1969, Legernes moved to Asker and became a coach of Stabæk (from 1970 to 1972 and 1982), Asker and Jevnaker (1984–85)
