Mohammed Odriss (born 19 September 2004) is a Dutch professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Eerste Divisie club VVV-Venlo.

Club career

Odriss was born in Tegelen, Limburg, and began playing football at local amateur club SC Irene before joining their cooperation club VVV-Venlo in 2013, where he entered the club's youth academy.[2][3][4]

Ahead of the 2023–24 season, head coach Rick Kruys selected Odriss as one of ten youth players to participate in the first-team pre-season preparations.[5] He made his professional debut on 13 August 2023 in the opening match of the season, a 3–1 home loss to provincial rivals MVV, replacing Elias Sierra as a substitute in the 64th minute.[6]

On 21 March 2024, Odriss signed his first professional contract with VVV-Venlo, which ran until 1 July 2026 and included an option for a further season.[3][7]

During the 2024–25 season, Odriss missed a significant portion of the campaign due to injury, limiting his number of appearances. In the following season, after the departure of head coach John Lammers, he became a regular member of the starting line-up. In November 2025, Odriss extended his contract with the club until 2027, with an option for an additional year.[4][8]
