Club career
Sverrir started his career with local club FH before moving abroad to Molde FK. He later returned to FH and played two full seasons with the club before injuring himself, being out for two seasons. He returned for the 2007 season, moving abroad to play with GIF Sundsvall after the season. He returned again to FH in 2009 and played 8 games. He then announced that he had quit football due to a head injury, but announced his intention to start playing again in 2012 and switched to fellow Úrvalsdeild team ÍBV and played with them in the Icelandic League Cup. However, he left the team before the season started and joined 1. deild club Haukar, FH's local rivals, and managed to play 15 games. After the season Fylkir announced that Sverrir would play with them for the 2013 season.[1]
