Club career

[edit]

He is a former youth talent of HJK of Helsinki. In addition to HJK, he has played two matches for PK-35 Vantaa of Vantaa on loan. He has also represented Finnish national team on different youth levels. He made his debut in the highest level of Finnish football, Veikkausliiga, in August 2014.

After his spell in HJK, he transferred to the local rival team HIFK in 2015.

On 6 January 2022, Eriksson signed with Scottish Premiership side Dundee United on a two-and-a-half-year deal, subject to work permit.[1]

On 22 January 2023, Eriksson was loaned out to Danish Superliga side FC Nordsjælland until the end of the season.[2] At the end of the season, the Danish club exercised their option to buy for the goalkeeper, who subsequently signed a three-year deal, for an undisclosed fee.[3][4]

On 1 July 2024, Eriksson transferred to Norwegian Eliteserien side Sarpsborg on a deal until the end of 2026 for a €200,000 fee.[5]
