Hugo Vetlesen, born on 29 February 2000 (age 26), is a Norwegian central midfielder at Club Brugge, where he wears the number 10 shirt. His current market value is around £6m, according to Transfermarkt.
His most productive league season came in 2022 with Bodo/Glimt, when he scored 16 goals in 29 appearances. That return is still the clear standout in his career so far, particularly for a midfielder whose role is not built only around finishing chances.
At Club Brugge, Vetlesen has remained part of the first-team picture into 2026-27. Across all competitions that season, he has made 20 appearances and scored six goals, including involvement in the Pro League, play-offs and Super Cup.
Vetlesen’s career has taken him from Norway to Belgium, with Bodo/Glimt providing the platform and Club Brugge now giving him regular football at a higher-profile level. He is an established professional rather than a name requiring much theatre.
