Marcus Edvin Bergholtz (born 15 December 1989 in Örkelljunga) is a Swedish footballer who plays as a midfielder.

Career

He began his career in Ekets GoIF in his home village of Eket, near Örkelljunga in northern Skåne. Bergholtz was then recruited to Helsingborgs IF for the 2004 season.[1] In 2007, Bergholtz went on a trial at Premier League club West Ham, who were interested in buying him, but when the club did not agree to Helsingborg's demands, the deal ran aground.[2] He made his debut from the start in the Allsvenskan match between Helsingborgs IF and IFK Göteborg on 4 October 2008 and played 13 matches for HIF during the 2008 season.

In January 2020, Bergholtz was recruited by Division 1 club Lindome GIF.[3]
