Alexander Sørloth (born 5 December 1995) is a Norwegian professional footballer who plays as a striker for SÜPER LİG club TRABZONSPOR and the Norway national team.
Club career
Rosenborg
After several years in the youth system Sørloth was rewarded with a contract by Rosenborg in July 2013. He played his first professional game for Rosenborg when he was subbed on in the second half of the Europa League first qualifying round game versus Crusaders, and it took him only 12 minutes to score his first goal, Rosenborg's 6th in their 7–2 win.
He made his debut in the Tippeligaen on 20 July 2014 in Rosenborg's home game against Sogndal coming on as a substitute for Alexander Søderlund after 60 minutes.[5]
Sørloth went on a loan to Bodø/Glimt before the start of the 2015 Tippeligaen. He quickly became one of the best players in the team and one of the best players in the league scoring 13 goals and making 5 assist in his 26 appearances (19 starters), including scoring six goals in one game against Sarpsborg 08.[5] In his last match for Bodø/Glimt, he scored his second hat-trick of the season, against Stabæk.
Groningen
On 6 November 2015, Sørloth confirmed that he would be joining FC Groningen on a 4.5-year contract at the end of the season. Groningen paid a transfer fee of around €750,000.
Midtjylland
On 1 June 2017, FC Midtjylland announced that they had signed a four-year contract with Alexander Sørloth.[6]
Crystal Palace
On 31 January 2018, Sørloth signed for Crystal Palace for a reported fee of £9 million.[7] He made his debut on 10 February 2018 in a 3–1 away defeat to Everton.[8] On Tuesday 28 August, Sørloth scored his first goal for Crystal Palace in an EFL Cup game against Swansea City with the game finishing 1–0.[9]
Loan to Gent
On 8 January 2019, Sørloth signed for Belgian First Division A side, K.A.A. Gent on loan until the end of the 2018–19 season.[10]
Loan to Trabzonspor
In August 2019, Sørloth signed for Turkish Süper Lig club Trabzonspor on loan until the end of the 2020–21 season.[11]
Sørloth's first official match for Trabzonspor was against Sparta Prague in the third qualifying round of the UEFA Europa League, where he scored the second goal in a match that ended 2–2.[12] In March 2020, Sørloth scored his first hat-trick for Trabzonspor against Kasimpasa, in a match that ended 6–0.[13]
On 5 July 2020, Sørloth became Trabzonspor’s top-scoring foreign player in a single season, with 29 goals, passing legendary Georgian former center-forward Shota Arveladze.[14]
RB Leipzig
After playing for his national team in the first two group matches of UEFA Nations League, Sørloth failed to return to Trabzon prior to Trabzonspor's upcoming league fixture against Beşiktaş.[15] On 22 September 2020, Sørloth signed for RB Leipzig for an initial fee of €20 million plus €2 million in potential add-ons, with any proceeds to be shared evenly between Trabzonspor and Crystal Palace.[16] On 2 December 2020, he scored the game-winning goal against İstanbul Başakşehir in a 4-3 win in the 2020–21 UEFA Champions League.[17] This was his first goal for the club.

He is the son of former Rosenborg player and Norwegian international Gøran Sørloth.[7]
On the 3rd June 2021 an Instagram post of his surpassed 3.5 million comments, making it the most commented post on Instagram by an athlete. It was mainly fans of the Turkish football club Trabzonspor, asking the player to return to his former loan club.
