Club career edit
Eriksen was born in Skarnes.[1] He made his debut for Elverum in the 0–0 draw against Nybergsund on 14 April 2012. He scored his first goal for the club in the 2–2 draw against Fram Larvik on 21 April 2012.
Ahead of the 2012/2013 season, thanks to I-N-I Music & Sport Agency, Eriksen was invited for trials by Polish Ekstraklasa club Lechia Gdansk,[2] but no contract was offered. Despite that, he managed to move up a tier, to Sandnes Ulf of Norwegian Premier League. He made his first-tier debut in March 2014 against Odd. In the 2015 season he scored 7 league goals and 3 cup goals, 2016 season followed with a great season with 12 goals in the league and 5 in the cup a season that put Sandnes Ulf for qualification back to Tippeligaen after they got relegated in 2014. After a great season for Sandnes Ulf in 2016 he signed another contract that last until December 2018. In the summer of 2017 he was near to sign a deal with Bodo/Glimt but a last minute decline on a 2 million NOK bid on Eriksen left him no choice than to stay in Sandnes Ulf.
During the winter of 2018, Fk Haugesund wanted to buy him, but again the offer was declined by Sandnes Ulf and the captain stayed in Sandnes Ulf for the 2019 season.
