First Scotland robbed three points off Norway win Olso.
Now the Scottish champions have nicked one of the nation’s top talents. Former Aberdeen ace Thomas Solberg is still feeling a bit sore after Steve Clarke’s boys snatched a last-gasp victory in the Euro 2024 qualifying clash a couple of weeks ago to steal a march on the road to Germany. And now the Norwegian ex-Don reckons one of his old rivals has managed to pinch one of the best prospects in his country.
Odin Thiago Holm checked in at Parkhead last week on the same day Brendan Rodgers took his bow back in the hotseat. The return of the manager hogged most of the headlines but Solberg is convinced the kid will soon make his own. Holm arrived with a £2.6million price tag and a reputation as one of Norway’s brightest young talents. The 20-year-old turned down offers to head to academies in England with Man United and Liverpool and rejected advances of Juventus in favour of first-team football at Valerenga.
