Hugo Vetlesen, born on 29 February 2000 (age 26), is a Norway international midfielder with Club Brugge, where he wears the number 10 shirt. A central midfielder by trade, his current market value is around £6m, according to Transfermarkt.
His most productive league season came at Bodø/Glimt in 2022, when he scored 16 goals in 29 appearances. That return marked him out as more than a tidy midfield presence; he was getting into scoring positions often enough to matter, which is usually the difference between a useful player and one clubs actually pay attention to.
At Club Brugge, Vetlesen remains a regular first-team presence in 2026–27. He has made 30 appearances across all competitions, scoring 10 goals, including five in 10 Pro League matches and one in four Champions League appearances. He has also featured in the Belgian play-off fixtures and the Super Cup, so this is not a player being kept around the edges.
Vetlesen’s career has moved from a strong spell in Norway to a settled role in Belgium, with his best work coming as a midfield scorer rather than a purely functional passer. He is an established professional in a current Club Brugge side where he continues to carry a proper workload.
