Serie A player forced to

Bologna striker Jens Odgaard went viral after fans noticed a strange red mark on his neck during a Serie A match against Venezia. Bologna won the game 1-0 thanks to a second-half goal from Riccardo Orsolini. Social media erupted with jokes and speculation about Odgaard’s neck, with some calling it a “zombie bite” or “shark bite.” To clear up the confusion, the 26-year-old Danish forward took to social media, explaining that the mark was simply from a medicinal treatment for his neck and nothing serious.

So far in the 2024/25 season, Odgaard has scored six goals and provided three assists in 31 appearances. Bologna’s win over Venezia pushed them into fourth place in the Serie A standings, just two points behind Atalanta, as they aim to secure a Champions League spot. While Bologna participated in this season’s Champions League, they were eliminated early after finishing 28th overall, managing only one win in eight games. Notably, they defeated Borussia Dortmund but lost to teams like Liverpool and Aston Villa. Bologna’s next challenge is a Coppa Italia semi-final clash against Empoli.
