Sindre Walle Egeli (born 21 June 2006) is a Norwegian footballer who plays as a forward for EFL Championship club Ipswich Town and the Norway national team.
Born in Larvik, Egeli spent his youth career between the academies of Nanset IF and Sandefjord. [2] On his debut for Sandefjord 2, he scored all five goals in a 5–0 win against Teie in the 4. divisjon. [3] An unusually prolific striker at youth and reserve level, he was likened to fellow Norwegian footballer Erling Haaland. [4]
In February 2022, it was announced that Egeli would move to Denmark to join the academy of Danish Superliga side Nordsjælland. [5] [6]
On 29 August 2025, Egeli signed for EFL Championship club Ipswich Town on a three-year deal. [7] The reported fee of £17.5 million represented a record transfer fee spent by a Championship club. [8]
Egeli has represented Norway at under-15 and under-16 level. [2] He continued his prolific club form for both national teams, scoring a six-minute hat-trick against Armenia in qualification for the 2023 UEFA European Under-17 Championship. [9]
Egeli debuted for the senior Norway national team on 6 September 2024 in a Nations League game against Kazakhstan at the Almaty Central Stadium. He substituted Antonio Nusa in the 84th minute of a scoreless draw. [10]
Egeli is the younger brother of fellow professional footballer Vetle Walle Egeli. [11]
