Hugo Vetlesen, born on 29 February 2000 (age 26), is a Norwegian central midfielder with 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 Bodø/Glimt, when he scored 16 goals in 29 appearances. That sort of return from midfield tends to travel well on a CV, even if it is best treated with a little care outside its original setting.
At Club Brugge, Vetlesen has remained a regular first-team presence in 2026-27. He has made six league appearances and scored three league goals, with 23 appearances and nine goals in all competitions. That includes a Champions League appearance in which he scored, which is a useful way to keep a place in the conversation.
Vetlesen’s career so far has moved from a productive spell in Norway to a steady role in Belgium. He is an established professional at Club Brugge rather than a headline act, but his current involvement and goal return keep him relevant in their side.
