Odin Thiago Holm was born in Trondheim, Norway, on 18 January 2003 (age 23). A 5ft 9in (1.76m), 11st (70kg) central midfielder, he has been most closely shaped by Valerenga, the club that has given his career its clearest line so far.
Holm made his name there as a young midfielder, with the 2021 season his most productive in the league: three goals in 19 appearances. Across six seasons with Valerenga, he has made 70 league appearances and scored six goals, which says more about the substance of his career than any passing stop elsewhere.
Celtic moved for him in July 2023, signing him from Valerenga for around Β£2.5m. It was a deal with the usual idea attached: a young midfielder with technical promise, brought in from a market Celtic had worked before. His time in Glasgow did not become the defining stretch of his career, though it remains a significant marker in it.
He left Celtic in March 2026 for Valerenga, with a spell at Los Angeles FC also part of the route between his Glasgow period and becoming more firmly associated again with the Norwegian club. In January 2025, he was also part of Celtic-related transfer speculation, but the more meaningful facts are the moves that did happen.
Holm now wears squad number 15 for Valerenga. In 2026, he has made two league appearances without scoring. His market value is around Β£850,000, according to Transfermarkt.
His career remains that of a developing Norwegian midfielder whose strongest and most sustained connection is Valerenga, with Celtic sitting as an important but shorter chapter in the middle of the story.
