Jens Petter Hauge has been tipped for a move to the Premier League after his impressive performances for Bodo/Glimt in the UEFA Champions League this season.
The 26-year-old winger has played a key role in Bodo/Glimt’s historic European campaign, scoring six goals in ten matches while also producing several standout attacking displays.

Hauge has also contributed 19 goals and assists in his last 24 appearances for the Norwegian champions, drawing attention from several English clubs looking to strengthen their attacking options.
Premier League interest grows in Hauge
Reports suggest that Tottenham Hotspur and Everton are monitoring Hauge’s situation closely, with other Premier League teams also showing interest.
European football expert Andy Brassell believes the Norwegian winger could thrive in England and even suggested Aston Villa as a perfect destination under manager Unai Emery.
Brassell described Hauge as “really something special” and praised his ability to provide natural width in attack, something he believes many Premier League sides currently lack.
Hauge previously experienced spells in major European leagues with AC Milan and Eintracht Frankfurt, though he struggled to fully establish himself during those moves.
After returning to Bodo/Glimt, however, the winger has rediscovered his best form and appears ready for another opportunity at a higher level, reports Talk Sport.
Brassell also highlighted the growing influence of Scandinavian players in European football, pointing to stars such as Erling Haaland and Martin Odegaard as examples of the region’s rising talent pipeline.
With clubs increasingly looking for affordable and technically strong players, the Norwegian winger could soon become the latest Scandinavian star to make the jump to England.
