Club career
Eriksen was born in Skarnes.[1] He made his debut for Elverum in the 0-0 draw against Nybergsund on 14 April 2012. He scored his first goal for the club in the 2-2 draw against Fram Larvik on 21 April 2012.
Ahead of the 2012/2013 season, thanks to I-N-I Music & Sport Agency, Kent was invited for trials by Polish Ekstraklasa club Lechia Gdansk,[2] but no contract was offered. Despite that, he managed to move up a tier, to Sandnes Ulf of Norwegian Premier League. He made his first-tier debut in March 2014 against Odd. In the 2015 season he scored 7 league goals and 3 cup goals, 2016 season followed with a great season with 12 goals in the league and 5 in the cup a season that put Sandnes Ulf for qualification back to Tippeligaen after they got relegated in 2014. After a great season for Sandnes Ulf in 2016 he signed another contract that last until December 2018. In the summer 2017 he was near to sign a deal with Bodo/Glimt but a last minute decline on a 2 million NOK bid on Eriksen left him no choice than to stay in Sandnes Ulf.
Winter 2018, Fk Haugesund wanted to buy him, but again a offer got declined from Sandnes Ulf and the captain stayed in Sandnes Ulf for the 2019 Season.
