[3] In February 2024 Hansen was signed by Viking. [4]

He made his Viking debut in the 2024 cup against Varhaug, followed by his Eliteserien debut in July against Kristiansund. [5]

He made his breakthrough in 2025, playing for Norway U20 [2] and starting Eliteserien matches. His first Eliteserien goal came against Rosenborg in the summer, followed by a decisive goal in the next match versus Strømsgodset, helping Viking secure the lead in the table. [6]
