Emil Bohinen (born 12 March 1999) is a Norwegian professional footballer who plays as central midfielder for Italian club Venezia. He is the son of former Norway international midfielder Lars Bohinen.
Bohinen joined Stabæk youth academy, and made his first team debut for the club in 2017. He made his debut for the first team in the Eliteserien on 17 April 2017 against Sarpsborg 08 FF in a 3âÂÂ0 win.
After scoring four goals and making eights assists in all competitions during the 2019 season, during November 2019, Bohinen was linked with a move to Premier League side Brighton & Hove Albion.
In December 2019, Stabæk entered talks with Premier League side Sheffield United and EFL Championship side Leeds United about the signing of Bohinen, with Bohinen joining Sheffield United on trial. When asked about being linked to Leeds, Bohinen on 21 January 2020 spoke to Eurosport Norway saying of Leeds' head coach Marcelo Bielsa 'He is a coaching legend, so of course it would have been an experience in itself to play for him'.
On 15 February 2021, CSKA Moscow announced the signing of Bohinen from Stabæk on a contract until the end of the 2024âÂÂ25 season.
On 31 January 2022, he joined Italian club Salernitana on loan with an option to buy and a conditional obligation to buy. The condition for the obligation to buy was fulfilled by Salernitana staying in Serie A, and on 29 June 2022 Bohinen moved to Salernitana on a permanent basis, signing a four-year contract.
On 17 January 2024, Bohinen moved to Genoa on loan, with an option to buy and a conditional obligation to buy.
On 3 February 2025, Bohinen joined Frosinone on loan.
On 1 September 2025, Bohinen moved on loan to Venezia, with a conditional obligation to buy. On 2 February 2026, Venezia made the transfer permanent and signed a contract with Bohinen until 30 June 2028.
Despite being born in Derby, England during his father's spell with Derby County, Bohinen has represented Norway at several age groups up to and including Norway U21.
Bohinen was highly rated as part of the same age group of the new generation of Norwegian footballers alongside the likes of Erling Haaland, Martin ÃÂdegaard, Kristoffer Ajer and Sander Berge.
Bohinen plays primarily as a central midfielder, and has also occasionally played as a winger. He has been described as a skilful player with good technique and good vision. Eurosport also described that 'he also has the X-factor when it comes to his left foot'.
