Odsonne Edouard was born on 16 January 1998 in French Guiana. He's a forward by trade who, as of now, plays primarily as a striker for Leicester City. Standing tall at 6ft 1in (1.87m) and tipping the scale at 13st (83kg), Edouard sports the number 19 jersey. His current market value, according to Transfermarkt, is estimated to be approximately £12m. His tenure with Leicester City is measured in months rather than years, with his contract set to expire on 30 June 2025.

Edouard launched his professional journey in July 2011, aligning with Paris Saint-Germain in France's Ligue 1 as a young trainee. His development saw him transferred on loan to Toulouse, also in Ligue 1, in August 2016. His debut season (2016-2017) with Toulose had its ebbs and flows, resulting in a round of 16 first team appearances, wherein he struck net once.

This brings us to Edouard's time at Celtic, where he landed in August 2017 via another loan move from Paris Saint-Germain. This period in the Premiership proved rewarding for Edouard, marking a prolific scoring phase of his career. Season 2017-2018 saw him don the hooped jersey in 22 league matches, registering a commendable tally of nine goals.

Impressed by Edouard's outings, Celtic decided to make the loan into a permanent move. This coup was completed in July 2018 for a friendly sum of £9m. His time with Celtic from 2018 to 2021 was a fruitful spell indeed. He made 90 first team appearances across three seasons, his boot contributing a mighty total of 55 goals. These performances, etched in the annals of Celtic history, include 22 goals in 27 appearances in 2019-2020, marking his most potent year.

Come August 2021, England's Crystal Palace pounced on the opportunity to sign Edouard for a cool sum of £14m. Edouard persevered in the new league, appearing 93 times and scoring 18 goals over three seasons.

Edouard's journey continued as he was loaned to Leicester City in August 2024. The current season of 2024-2025 has seen him make four league appearances for the Foxes. His involvement with Leicester City's League Cup run of 2024-2025, saw Edouard make 2 appearances in total - one as a starter and one from the bench.
