Club career

He started out his career in his native homeland playing for Bridge Boys, before he transferred to Aalesund on 6 January 2012.[1]

An injury obtained during pre-season hindered his path into the first team and he did not get back into full training until the start of July. On 26 July 2012 he made his first appearance for Aalesund coming on as a substitute at the start of the second half of the game versus Tirana in Europe League scoring twice in Aalesund's 5-0-win. On 29 July 2012 he made his debut in Tippeligaen and also started his first match, against Stabæk.
