Odin Thiago Holm (born Odin Holm; 18 January 2003) [1] is a Norwegian professional footballer who plays as a central midfielder for Scottish Premiership club Celtic.
Holm started his career with Vålerenga and scored his first goal for the club on 22 December 2020 in a 4–0 win against IK Start. [3] He was also included in The Guardian's "Next Generation 2020". [4]
In June 2023, he moved to Scottish Premiership club Celtic on a five-year deal, for a fee of £2.6 million. [5] [6] [7]
Holm joined Major League Soccer club Los Angeles FC in January 2025 on a season-long loan. [8] Holm would only make scattered appearances with LAFC and their reserve side, Los Angeles FC 2, and would return to Celtic at the end of the loan. [9]
In 2017, he was granted an application to the Norwegian resident registration to take Thiago as a middle name. The name change was based on the fact that he has the football player Thiago Alcântara as a role model. [10]
In October 2025, Holm revealed he was suffering from a condition which was causing his calf muscles to put pressure on his nerves and blood vessels when running continuously and described the feeling as being "half paralysed". Holm said that he had traveled to Wyoming to test a treatment where Botox was injected into his calf muscles to allow normal blood circulation, but that the problems eventually returned so different dosage amounts were being tested.

Tidlig i 2017 fikk Vålerenga-unggutten en original idé: Han ville endre navn og spurte foreldrene om lov til å legge til «Thiago» som mellomnavn. Barcelona-supporter Odin Holm var nemlig inspirert av tidligere Barca-stjerne Thiago Alcantara, en spiller han kan identifisere seg med når det gjelder spillestil...Etter mye overtalelse gikk foreldrene til slutt med på sønnens ønske, søknaden ble sendt til folkeregisteret og hans offisielle navn er nå Odin Thiago Holm. Det er navnet som nå står i passet.
