Career
Oscar Bobb’s outstanding performance at a youth tournament in the Algarve in 2013, when he was just 10 years old, caught the attention of FC Porto, a famous football club in Portugal. Impressed by his talent, FC Porto took significant measures to secure Bobb’s services, even covering the expenses for him and his mother, Turid Gunnes, to visit their club in Porto.
In 2015, Gunnes made the brave decision to move to Portugal on his own, paving the way for Bobb to join Porto’s respected youth academy. However, complications arising from legal issues surrounding his transfer saw Bobb’s time in Portugal cut short.
Taking a bold step in 2019, Oscar Bobb left Norwegian football and joined Manchester City, a club with a global reputation. This decision has proven pivotal for his career, allowing him to train with and learn from top players and coaches from around the world.
Bobb faced both challenges and opportunities in his early years. Although his time in Portugal was short-lived, it exposed him to a different footballing culture and honed his skills. His subsequent decision to return to Norway and move to Manchester City demonstrated his determination and ambition to succeed at the highest level.
On 14 January 2023, a thrilling moment took place in the Premier League when Norwegian youngster Oscar Bobb scored his first goal against Newcastle United. This remarkable achievement demonstrated Bobb’s talent and potential, playing a key role in City’s impressive comeback from 2-1 down to win the match 3-2 on aggregate.
It is worth noting the impact that substitute Kevin De Bruyne had under Pep Guardiola in turning the game around. Making his first Premier League appearance since August, De Bruyne (KDB) equalised and made a significant contribution with an assist for the winning goal.
