Career

In April 2013 he signed his first contract with Brann, due after the 2013 season, after 7 years as a youth player. Gjesdal became a first team regular due to injuries on fellow centre backs Markus Jonsson and Simen Wangberg, and was called up to the national under-21 team. He debuted on 5 June as a substitute in a friendly match against Finland. On 3 October 2013 he signed a contract keeping him with Brann until the end of the 2015 season.[2] Before the last game of the 2013 season against Tromsø, he was named Young Player of the Year by the supporters.[3] Despite this, on 12 March 2014 it was announced that Gjesdal would leave on a four-month-long loan to 1. divisjon club Nest-Sotra.[4]

In summer 2014 Gjesdal signed a ​2 1⁄2-year contract with Tromsø.

gollark: RGB means you enjoy the *fun* of random CPU-wasting incompatible RGB control programs.
gollark: Also, it might be sensible to get cheaper non-RGB RAM.
gollark: You don't need a CPU cooler that much, AMD CPUs ship with a usable one.
gollark: AMD did stealthily make the stock cooler on some of their CPUs slightly worse recently, I remember, but it should still work.
gollark: They would probably be better off upgrading the CPU to a 3600 or something and using the stock cooler.
