Hugo Vetlesen, born on 29 February 2000 (age 26), is a Norwegian centre midfielder with Club Brugge, where he wears the number 10 shirt. His market value is around £6m, according to Transfermarkt.
His standout season came at Bodø/Glimt in 2022, when he scored 16 goals in 29 league appearances. That sort of return from midfield tends to travel well on a CV, even if it does not always tell the full story of a player’s week-to-week usefulness.
At Club Brugge, Vetlesen has remained part of the first-team picture in 2026-27. He has made 26 appearances and scored six goals across all competitions, including seven Champions League outings, with further involvement in the Belgian play-offs and Super Cup.
Vetlesen’s career has moved from a productive spell in Norway to a regular role in Belgium. He is an established professional rather than a name needing much dressing up, and his current place at Club Brugge reflects that.
