Eythor Bjørgolfsson, a formidable forward of strong, Nordic stock, greeted his 25th year on this earth as of 25 August 2000. He was born somewhere within the rugged landscapes of Norway and now wields his talents at Motherwell as a striker, the position where he feels more at home. Towering at 6ft 3in (1.93m) and possessing a robust physicality of 13st (83kg), he commands his territory in the box wearing the number 15 shirt.
In March 2025, Bjørgolfsson bid adieu to his native soil. He departed from Moss, a team making their mark in Norway's OBOS-ligaen, and found refuge in Umea FC where he relished the challenge of competing in the Division 1 Norra in Sweden. Details regarding the fee remain shrouded in ambiguity, with club officials preferring to keep their cards close to their chests.
The 2025 season witnessed Bjørgolfsson gravitating towards the limelight. Gracing the Swedish turf in his Umea FC colours, he vindicated his transfer with an impressive tally of 15 goals in 29 league appearances. His deftness in front of goal was rewarded with a move once again.
In the chill of January 2026, echoing the frosty auras reminiscent of his birthplace, Bjørgolfsson packed his bags and journeyed to Motherwell, a member of Scotland's Premiership cadre. His time in the current 2025 - 2026 season, albeit in its infancy, has consisted of two poignant performances. It's expected that his Nordic charm will continue to enthrall the Scottish spectators.
