Waterford FC have added Norwegian winger Jorgen Voilas to their squad ahead of the 2026 League of Ireland season.

The 27-year-old had a trial period with the Blues this winter, featuring in pre-season games.

Voilas started his career with Norwegian side SK Djerv 1919 in 2018 until 2020, with a short spell at fellow Norwegian club Vard in between.

The winger has also spent time with Notodden, Bryne & Egersund in the Norwegian second and third divisions, before spending time with Swedish outfit Umea FC last season ahead of his move to the RSC.

The versatile winger has over 160 senior club appearances to his name in his eight-year career to date.

Voilas spoke of his delight in earning a contract at the RSC: "It’s a pleasure to be here. This is such an amazing opportunity and one I am looking forward to. Hopefully with hard work and determination, we as a team will be able to bring a lot of great moments for everybody with a blue heart. Let’s get to work."

Daly feels he has signed a player who can shine in Irish football: "We’re really pleased to get Jørgen into the club. He’s made a very strong impression during his time training with us.

"He’s shown qualities that I believe are essential to succeed in the League of Ireland – aggression, an excellent work ethic, playing the game with real intent and a hunger to succeed.

"I’ve no doubt the fans will take to him, because he leaves everything out on the pitch."
