Born on the 12th of January in 1999, Torbjørn Heggem hails from Norway. At 26 years of age, he commands the football pitch as a central defender for Bologna. The strapping lad is a fair 6 feet tall (1.85m) and tips the scales at a formidable 12 stone 1 pound (77kg). Strewn across his back, the number 14 jersey is a clear marker of Heggem's presence on the field, both for his club and for the Norwegian national team.
As of the current market calculation, Heggem has an estimated value of around £1m, as per Transfermarkt.
Heggem started his professional career as a trainee with Rosenborg in Norway's Eliteserien in January 2017. After two years with Rosenborg, he went on loan to Ranheim, also in Norway, in January 2019. In his debut year, he made his mark with 18 appearances in league matches. The following season, he appeared in 30 matches and netted his first goal.
In January 2021, Heggem moved from Rosenborg to Sandnes Ulf in the 2. Divisjon, for an amount whose details remain undisclosed. While at Sandnes Ulf, he made 60 appearances over two seasons and found the back of the net once.
The start of 2023 saw Heggem change clubs again, moving from Sandnes Ulf to IF Brommapojkarna in Sweden's Allsvenskan. He racked up 40 appearances and capitalised on 2 of them to score during his stint in Sweden.
In July 2024, Heggem decided to venture to the English Championship with West Bromwich Albion, a transfer that cost the club approximately £530k. Making 46 appearances and finding the net once, Heggem put up a commendable performance during his time at West Bromwich.
August 2025 saw Heggem move to Bologna in the Serie A, Italy. The transfer, of up to a staggering £6.5 million, landed him at one of the larger clubs in Italy. So far, in the current 2025/2026 season at Bologna, he has made one appearance in league matches.
His international duties have seen him play for Norway in the World Cup Qualifiers Europe 2024 - 2026 with three starts and one appearance as a substitute. He also represented Norway in the Nations League 2024 - 2025 with one start and two appearances as a substitute.
