Adam Daghim

Adam Daghim (; born 28 September 2005) is a Danish professional footballer who plays as a right winger or forward for club TSG Hoffenheim and the Denmark national team. He is the younger brother of fellow professional footballer Ahmed Daghim.

Early life Daghim was born on 28 September 2005 in Vanløse, a district of Copenhagen. His father is Palestinian and his mother is from Libya; his family is of Palestinian heritage, and he is eligible to represent Palestine at senior international level. Learning of it ten minutes before kick-off, Adam chose to play the game, his side winning 2–1 with his two assists, before travelling to the hospital. He described his family's response as characteristically forward-looking: "We must not dwell too much in the past. We must always look forward." When he found his playing time limited in Copenhagen's first-year under-17 squad, it opened the opportunity to join AGF, and he relocated to Aarhus in 2021, moving into a dormitory near the club's training ground at Fredensvang. In the same month, he signed his first professional contract with the club.

Red Bull Salzburg On 30 August 2023, Daghim joined Red Bull Salzburg for a reported fee of approximately €3 million on an initial contract until June 2026. He was initially deployed as a cooperation player at Salzburg's affiliate club FC Liefering in the Austrian 2. Liga, where he scored four goals and provided three assists in nine league appearances in the autumn of 2023, and added a further four goals and two assists in six appearances in the UEFA Youth League, in which Salzburg won their group ahead of Benfica, Real Sociedad and Inter Milan.

Daghim was promoted to the Red Bull Salzburg first team for the 2024–25 season, during which he scored in the Champions League qualifying round against Dynamo Kyiv to help secure Salzburg's place in the league phase. On 29 January 2025, in a 4–1 home defeat by Atlético Madrid, he scored a stoppage-time consolation—his first goal in the Champions League proper. That summer Daghim also represented Salzburg at the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup. Sporting director Sebastian Schindzielorz described him as "a young offensive talent with a lot of potential" whose pace made him "particularly valuable for our attack".

Daghim scored twice and provided three assists in the Bundesliga during a season interrupted by a back injury that sidelined him between November and December 2025. The team finished the season in the relegation play-off position and lost the play-off to SC Paderborn on penalties, dropping to the 2. Bundesliga; among those relegated with Daghim were the Denmark internationals Joakim Mæhle, Christian Eriksen and Jonas Wind. Due to return to Salzburg at the end of the loan, Daghim said in June 2026 that he did not intend to remain in Austria and was seeking a move to one of Europe's top-five leagues.

International career Daghim has represented Denmark at under-18, under-19 and under-21 level. He made his senior debut on 3 June, starting on the right wing in a 0–0 friendly draw with DR Congo in Liège. Reviewing his performance, the former international and pundit Morten Bruun wrote that Daghim had begun brightly but faded after the break, and judged that he was not yet at international level despite his potential.

Through his Palestinian descent, Daghim is also eligible to represent Palestine at international level.
