How to read this: the headline is the net wealth (nettoformue) recorded for Ørjan Nyland on Norway’s official tax list for the 2024 income year, as printed by a national newspaper. It is what the Norwegian Tax Administration assessed from the tax return: assets minus debts, at tax values. Homes are counted at a fraction of their market price and shares at a discount, and money held in a personal holding company shows up only through the value of its shares, so the real figure is usually higher. This is an official tax figure, not a journalist’s estimate, and we show it as published. The figure was published in NOK; the US dollar amount next to it is our simple conversion at the European Central Bank reference rate of November 5, 2026, not a separate estimate.

Ørjan Håskjold Nyland is a Norwegian professional goalkeeper who plays for Bundesliga club RB Leipzig and the Norway national team. He came through Molde, won the Tippeligaen, then spent years in Germany and England with Ingolstadt, Aston Villa, Norwich and Bournemouth. In 2023 he signed for Sevilla, won the Europa League, and later moved to RB Leipzig.

Norway's official tax list for the 2024 income year records his net wealth at NOK 16.0 million, about $1.7 million at the November 5, 2026 exchange rate. The same Molde table shows taxable income of about NOK 21.3 million.

What the tax list shows

VG's Molde table for income year 2024 lists Nyland sixth in the municipality: income NOK 21,331,299, net wealth NOK 15,967,826 and a modest tax bill of about NOK 188,000, which is typical when most of a player's tax is paid abroad.

TV 2's December 2025 sports tax roundup placed him just behind Casper Ruud on the national income ranking for Norwegian sports figures.

Career at a glance

Nyland was born in Volda and made his name at Molde under Ole Gunnar Solskjær, winning league titles before a Bundesliga move to Ingolstadt. Spells at Aston Villa (including the Championship play-off winning season), Norwich and Bournemouth followed.

At Sevilla he was part of the 2023 Europa League-winning squad. He has more than 50 caps for Norway and joined RB Leipzig in 2025 as experienced cover and competition in goal.

About this figure

Norway publishes every taxpayer's income, net wealth and tax paid each year, and newspapers comb the lists for famous names. VG printed Nyland's figures for the 2024 income year. Net wealth on the list is the figure the Tax Administration assessed from his tax return, assets minus debts.

Tax values are lower than market values, especially for homes and shares, so the figure understates what Nyland would be worth if everything were sold. We show it in Norwegian kroner, as published, with a rough US dollar conversion at the November 5, 2026 exchange rate. Income figures mentioned on this page are earnings for one year, not wealth.
