Career
He hails from Steinsland in Sund and started his career in local Skogsvåg IL. In 2010 he started playing regular senior football as he transferred to Hald. After half a season he went on to Løv-Ham,[1] [2] which was soon merged to form FK Fyllingsdalen. He stayed with Fyllingsdalen until the summer of 2015, when he stepped up one tier to First Division club Åsane.[3]
Glesnes had been on trial with multiple clubs domestic and abroad, including Liverpool FC, FC København, Brann, Sogndal, Hønefoss,[4] Lillestrøm and Nest-Sotra.[5][6] In 2016 he finally joined a first-tier club, Sarpsborg 08 FF, and made his first-tier debut in March 2016 against Haugesund.
