Fredrik Holmé (born 23 July 2001) is a Norwegian footballer who plays as a central defender for Kongsvinger.

Born in Oslo,[1] and growing up in Vestli,[2] Holmé played youth football for Skeid before transferring to the academy of Vålerenga in 2017.[3]

In June 2020, Holmé was drafted into Vålerenga's senior squad ahead of the delayed start of the 2020 Eliteserien.[4] He did not reach the first team, and was loaned out to Ull/Kisa in October to play the remainder of the 2020 1. divisjon campaign.[5] In July 2021, he made his Vålerenga debut in the cup match against Lyn, and then his Eliteserien debut against Sandefjord in September.[3] Still not near the first team, Vålerenga chose to sell Holmé to Kongsvinger.[6] For Kongsvinger, he made his debut in a cup game against Viking, held in March 2022.[3]

Holmé became gradually more noticed in 2023. In July 2023, he was named Young Player of the Month in the 1. divisjon.[7] He also extended his contract with Kongsvinger until the end of 2026,[8] and bought his first apartment in Kongsvinger.[9]

According to Telemark Arbeiderblad, Odd watched Holmé as a replacement for Odin Bjørtuft, and Sarpsborg Arbeiderblad mentioned him as a replacement for Bjørn Inge Utvik in Sarpsborg 08.[10][11] Ahead of the 2024 season, Kongsvinger rejected a "several million" bid from FK Haugesund, as well as "several bids" from Fredrikstad FK.[12][13][14]
