## Club career[edit]

In January 2020, she left Isloch-RGUOR,[5] and subsequently joined newly-created side Dynamo-BSUPC.[citation needed] On April 30, she made her debut for the club against ABFF, scoring a brace in the process.[7] In the debut season, she won both the league title and Belarusian Women's Cup with Dynamo.[6][8] The club achieved the same feat in the 2021 season, while also winning the Belarusian Super Cup.[6] In January 2022, the forward left the Minsk-based club.[8]

On 21 January 2022, Olhovik joined Serie B side Chievo Verona.[6][9] She scored three goals for the club,[10] as the club finished fourth in the league table.[11]

On 30 July of the same year, Olhovik joined Serie A side Sassuolo on a permanent deal.[12][13] She made her debut for the club on September 12, 2022, coming on for Refiloe Jane in the 67th minute of a 2–1 league loss to Parma.[11][14] In November 2022, the forward received her second award as the Best Belarusian Football Player of the Year.[11][15]

On 5 January 2023, Olhovik joined Serie B club Cesena on loan until the end of the season.[16] She scored four league for the team,[17] which finished seventh in the league table.[18]
