We are delighted to announce the signing of midfielder Olaug Tvedten from Norwegian club Valerenga, subject to international clearance and the usual regulatory processes.

Head coach Dario Vidosic said, "We’re really excited to welcome Olaug to the team. She’s a technical goal-scoring midfielder with real quality, and we’re looking forward to seeing the impact she can make heading into the second half of the season."

The 25-year-old began her career with IL Trott before signing her first professional contract with Avaldsnes IL in 2016. She was part of the team which won the Norwegian Cup in 2017, the club's first major trophy in their history.

She finished as the league’s top scorer in 2023 and again in 2025, scoring 52 goals across her four seasons, and was named Toppserien Player of the Year in 2024.
