Henriksson hails from Björlanda,[1] and started his youth career in IK Zenith before joining BK Häcken's academy.[2] He also participated in athletics as a child.[1]
For Häcken's senior team, he featured in three pre-season matches in 2021.[3] He made his debut for Häcken in March 2021, in the 2020–21 Svenska Cupen semi-final against Västerås.[4] He then missed the rest of the 2021 season through knee injury. He was not offered a contract in Häcken and instead signed for GAIS in the Ettan, immediately becoming a starting player.[3][5]
Henriksson scored 11 goals in 2022 to help secured promotion to the Superettan for GAIS.[1] In 2023, GAIS secured its second straight promotion, with Henriksson described as a "crowd favourite".[6][7][8]
Henriksson made his Allsvenskan debut in March 2024 against Brommapojkarna.[4] He scored his first double goal in Allsvenskan against Elfsborg in May 2024.[9] He was described as a "key player" for GAIS.[10]
At the same time, he became somewhat controversial. After scoring in the GAIS–IFK Göteborg derby in May 2024, Henriksson was heard singing "Pissa, pissa på, pissa på IFK" after the match.[11] In October 2024, he apologized after praising the use of bangers in the stands.[12]
On 6 August 2025, Henriksson signed for Blackburn Rovers on a four-year deal with an option to extend for a further season.[13]
