Career
editOdden hails from Notodden and started her career in SK Snøgg.[1] Concurrently with her football career in the Third Division, she competed on national level in age-specific track and field, mostly high jump, shot put and discus throw.[2] In her late teenages, she moved to Oslo and had spells in Røa IL and Kolbotn IL before returning to Røa in 2014.[3] She became Røa's first choice in 2017 following the retirement of Silje Vesterbekkmo. Odden was selected as team captain ahead of the 2018 season.[4]
However, after the 2019 season she had lost motivation to continue, and terminated her contract. She agreed to move to city rivals Lyn.[1] She became club captain here as well, in 2021.[5]
In 2022 Odden was contacted and signed by Italian club Sampdoria.[6] She played 5 Serie A games for Sampdoria.[7] The club fell into economic disarray in 2023, allegedly with months of unpaid wages.[8] She returned to Lyn during the summer 2023 transfer window.[9]
