Waterford FC have announced the signing of Norwegian winger Jorgen Voilas ahead of the 2026 League of Ireland season.

The 27 year-old becomes Jon Daly’s latest signing of the transfer window, after a successful trial period with the Blues this winter.

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, as he prepares for life with the Blues in the 2026 SSE Airtricity Men’s Premier Division this season.

Speaking on his move to the club, Violas spoke of his eagerness to get to work with his new teammates, saying:

“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.”

Blues Head Coach Jon Daly is delighted to welcome Jorgen to the club, outlining:

“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.”
