Emil Holm, born on 13 May 2000 (age 26), is a Swedish right-back with Bologna, where he wears the number 2 shirt. At 6ft 3in (1.91m), he is a tall full-back rather than the usual low-slung runner in the position.
His most productive league campaign came in 2020-21 with Sønderjyske, where he scored three times in 14 appearances. That remains the clearest early marker of his attacking output, even if his career has since been shaped more by top-level involvement than by goals.
At Bologna in 2026-27, Holm has made one Serie A appearance, two in the Supercoppa and five in the Europa League, giving him eight appearances across all competitions. His current market value is around £11m, according to Transfermarkt.
Holm’s career to this point is that of an established Swedish defender working at a solid European level: physically suited to the role, with some attacking contribution earlier on, and now part of Bologna’s domestic and European squad picture.
