Odin Thiago Holm, born on 18 January 2003, now 22 years of age, hails from Norway and currently serves as a central midfielder for Los Angeles FC. He stands 5 feet 9 inches (1.76m) tall and weighs in at 11st (70kg). In a touch of individual flair, the lad sports the number 80 jersey.
Valued at the relatively modest sum of Β£1.7m according to Transfermarkt, his current contract with Los Angeles FC is set to expire on 31 December 2025, leaving him with a precarious 7 months to renew or seek greener pastures.
Holm's career had humble beginnings, transferring from Ranheim to Valerenga, both in his native Norway, in January 2019 for an undisclosed fee. His performance at Valerenga showed a steady upward trajectory, starting with a single appearance in the elite league during his debut season, to making 16 first team appearances and contributing one goal in season 2020. The next year saw him clarify his mettle further, racking up 19 appearances and three goals, followed by 22 appearances and two goals in 2022. His last season in Valerenga, however, was marked by a noted dip in appearances, with a mere ten to his name.
Come July 2023, a significant turning point ensued. Holm transferred from Valerenga to Scotland's renowned Celtic, commanding a solid fee of approximately Β£2.6m. His experience at Celtic was a mixed bag; 9 team appearances in the 2023-2024 season with a further three during the 2024-2025 season.
In January 2025, after serving two seasons with Celtic, Holm was loaned to Los Angeles FC in the States. Currently in the LAFC, Holm has had a rather underwhelming start, with a mere single start, and two substitute appearances under his belt for the MLS 2025. He likewise appeared twice as a substitute for Los Angeles FC in the CONCACAF Champions Cup.
During his two-season tenure at Celtic, whilst his performances may not have set any records alight, they demonstrated a certain reliability and a potential that is yet to fully bloom. As he ventures over the waters to LAFC, here's hoping for a rekindling of his steady Norwegian form and a successful turn in his career.
