Player Info
Leo Østigård has emerged as a commanding and modern Norwegian centre-back, currently showcasing his talents in Serie A with Genoa. Born on November 28, 1999, the 26-year-old stands at 182cm and combines physical strength with excellent ball-playing ability. His career began at Brighton & Hove Albion, but it was through a series of shrewd loan moves that he developed his game, including productive spells at St. Pauli in Germany and Coventry City in England. These experiences forged a resilient and tactically astute defender. A permanent move to Napoli in 2022 placed him in a top-tier environment, and his subsequent transfer to Genoa has seen him become a defensive pillar. Østigård has also become a regular for the Norwegian national team. His main honors include being part of Napoli's historic Scudetto-winning squad in the 2022/23 season. A leader at the back, he is known for his bravery in challenges, aerial dominance, and ability to initiate attacks from deep.
