Sander Berge joined Vålerenga in 2014 from a small club Asker Football. He made his professional debut on 11 July 2015, coming off the bench against Sandefjord. On 16 August, he made his first league start against Rosenborg. In January 2016, he has joined West Ham United on trial and it seems that English Premier League would be a perfect direction for him in the near future.
