Career

[edit]

Vevatne started his career with Viking, where he was a part of the youth academy. He did not manage to break through to the first team, so he instead joined Bryne in 2014, where he signed his first professional contract.[2][3] On 25 July 2016, he joined Sandnes Ulf, after an unsuccessful spell with Brann, where he only made three first team appearances.[4] He returned to Viking ahead of the 2018 season, signing a three-year contract.[5] On 13 December 2019, he signed a contract extension keeping him at the club until the end of the 2022 season.[6]
