Perspective
Sogndal
Mannsverk progressed through the youth ranks of Sogndal. He signed his first professional contract in February 2019[1] and made his senior debut on 7 April 2019 against Sandefjord in the Norwegian First Division.[2] He quickly established himself as a regular midfielder for the team over the next two and a half seasons in Norway's second tier, making 55 appearances and scoring 6 goals across all competitions, including participation in the Eliteserien promotion play-offs.[2][3] His performances attracted interest from larger clubs.[4]
Molde

On 28 July 2021, Mannsverk signed for Eliteserien club Molde on a contract until 2025.[5] He became a key player in Molde's midfield during the 2022 season, helping the team win the Eliteserien and Norwegian Cup double. Mannsverk scored the winning goal in the Cup Final against Bodø/Glimt on 1 May 2022.[6] His performances earned him the Eliteserien Breakthrough Player of the Year award for 2022.[7] He also featured regularly in European competitions for Molde, primarily the UEFA Europa Conference League.[2] He continued as a starter in the 2023 season before transferring mid-campaign. In total, he made 86 appearances and scored 8 goals for Molde.[2]
Ajax
On 1 September 2023, Mannsverk signed a five-year contract with Eredivisie club Ajax in the Netherlands.[8] He made his debut on 17 September 2023 in an away match against FC Twente.[9] However, his start at Ajax was significantly disrupted by a foot/ankle injury sustained shortly after his debut, which sidelined him for several months.[9][10] Upon returning to fitness in early 2024, Mannsverk initially played matches for Jong Ajax in the Eerste Divisie to build match rhythm.[2] He made limited appearances for the first team during the remainder of the 2023–24 season and the start of the 2024–25 season, totaling 18 appearances for the senior side before going out on loan.[11]
Loan to Cardiff City
On 28 January 2025, seeking regular playing time after his injury recovery, Mannsverk joined EFL Championship club Cardiff City on loan until the end of the 2024–25 season.[12][11] He made his debut for the club on 1 February 2025 against Leeds United[2] and quickly became involved in the team's midfield.[13] By mid-March 2025, he had made 10 league appearances for Cardiff City.[2]
