Gustaf Nilsson, born on 23 May 1997 (age 29), is a Swedish striker with Club Brugge. A towering 6ft 6in (1.97m) centre-forward, he wears number 19 and is valued at around £6m by Transfermarkt.
His most productive league campaign came in 2021-2022 with Wehen Wiesbaden, where he scored 14 goals in 30 appearances. That remains the clearest marker of his output at senior level – a season where the size and penalty-box presence translated into proper numbers.
At Club Brugge, the 2025-2026 season has been quieter. Nilsson has made 16 appearances across all competitions without scoring, including league, play-off and European involvement. For a striker of his profile, that is a blunt enough summary.
Nilsson’s career is that of an established Swedish forward who has built his game around physical presence and centre-forward work, with his Wehen Wiesbaden season still standing as his strongest spell in front of goal.
