'''Ingemar Teever''' (born 24 February 1983) is an Estonian former professional [[association football|footballer]] who last played as a [[Forward (association football)|forward]] for Estonian [[Meistriliiga]] club [[FC Levadia Tallinn|Levadia]].

Teever was the top goalscorer in the [[2008 Meistriliiga|2008]] and the [[2015 Meistriliiga]] seasons. Teever was named [[Meistriliiga Player of the Year]] in 2015.

==Club career==
At the age of 19, Teever started his professional career with [[FC TVMK Tallinn|TVMK]], having previously played for lower division clubs [[Nõmme Kalju FC|Nõmme Kalju]] and [[FC M.C. Tallinn|M.C. Tallinn]]. There he won the [[2005 Meistriliiga]], [[Estonian Cup]] in 2003 and [[Estonian Supercup]] in 2005, before leaving the club in 2005.

===Öster===
On 1 December 2015, Teever joined the Swedish [[Allsvenskan]] club [[Östers IF|Öster]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.soccernet.ee/teever-siirdub-osters-if-sse |title=Teever siirdub Östers IF-sse |trans-title=Teever moves to Östers IF |date=1 December 2005 |language=et |publisher=Soccernet.ee |access-date=9 June 2010}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.ohtuleht.ee/index.aspx?id=188295 |archive-url=https://archive.today/20120910232132/http://www.ohtuleht.ee/index.aspx?id=188295 |url-status=dead |archive-date=10 September 2012 |title=Ingemar Teever hakkab mängima Rootsi kõrgliigas |trans-title=Ingemar Teever will play in Swedish premier league |date=21 December 2005 |language=et |publisher=[[Õhtuleht]] |access-date=9 June 2010 }}</ref> His first appearances for Öster were very promising, but as competitive matches approached, Teever's scoring record decreased rapidly. Teever scored a total of only five goals during his two seasons in Sweden, despite playing regularly.

===Nõmme Kalju===
Teever joined newly promoted [[Nõmme Kalju FC|Nõmme Kalju]] on loan after Öster were relegated to Swedish [[Swedish football Division 1]]. He became an instant hit, scoring 23 goals in 35 matches, winning the top goalscorer award,<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.soccernet.ee/eesti-meistriliiga-2008/statistika?varavaloojad |title=Meistriliiga 2008 statistika – Väravalööjad |trans-title=Meistriliiga 2010 statistics – Goalscorers |date=2 December 2008 |language=et |publisher=Soccernet.ee |access-date=9 June 2010}}</ref> and driving the team to the 4th place, just a point behind the third, [[JK Narva Trans|Trans Narva]].
