Jens Petter Hauge (born 12 October 1999) is a Norwegian professional footballer who plays as a winger for Eliteserien club Bodø/Glimt, and the Norway national team.

## Club career
### Bodø/Glimt

Born in Bodø, Nordland, spending his childhood years in FK Vinkelen, and progressing through the youth academy of Bodø/Glimt, Hauge signed his first professional contract with the club on 12 April 2016. The following day he made his senior debut in a 6–0 cup win against IF Fløya as a 64th-minute substitute for Fitim Azemi. He immediately scored a hat-trick. Hauge made his league debut on 23 April against Strømsgodset where he came on as a late substitute as Bodø/Glimt lost 2–0. In the next league games he featured regularly, and on 8 July, he scored his first top-flight goal in the 4–1 away win over IK Start, becoming Bodø/Glimt's youngest ever goalscorer in the Eliteserien. In the 2016 season, he made 20 league appearances in which he scored one goal, as Bodø/Glimt suffered relegation to the second-tier Norwegian First Division.
In the following season, Hauge established himself as an undisputed starter as Bodø/Glimt won the second-tier championship and made their immediate return to the top-flight Eliteserien. He made a significant contribution that season, scoring two goals and making 13 assists. At the start of the 2018 season, Hauge again lost his starting role, and as a result was loaned to the second-tier club Aalesunds FK, on 15 August 2018, halfway through the season, after 11 league appearances in which he scored no goals. In Aalesund, he had made only six league appearances by the end of the season.
During the course of the following season, Hauge made it back into the starting line-up of Bodø/Glimt. On 10 November 2019, he scored both goals for his club in a 2–3 away defeat to Rosenborg. That season, he made 28 league appearances in which he scored seven goals and registered two assists.
Scheduled to begin in March, the 2020 season, was postponed until June 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Hauge and Bodø/Glimt got off to an excellent start. After ten match-days, the club surprisingly took a lead in the league table. At that point, Hauge had already scored six goals and assisted six. He also managed to impress in the UEFA Europa League qualifiers. In the narrow 2–3 away defeat to Italian club A.C. Milan, Hauge was directly involved in both his team's goals. As a result, media reported that the Rossoneri were interested in signing him.

### AC Milan

On 1 October 2020, Hauge signed a five-year contract with Serie A club A.C. Milan. On 4 October 2020, he made his debut in a 3–0 win over Spezia. On 22 October 2020, he scored his first goal for Milan in a 3–1 win at Celtic in the group stage of the Europa League. On 22 November 2020, he scored his first Serie A goal in a 3–1 away win over Napoli.
