Elmo Veikko Oskari Henriksson (born 10 March 2003) is a Finnish professional footballer, playing as a goalkeeper for Sporting Gijón in Segunda División, on loan from HJK Helsinki.[2]

Club career

[edit]

Henriksson spent his early years with KyIF in Kirkkonummi before moving to HJK Helsinki in 2016. On 6 October 2020, Henriksson signed a professional contract with HJK, on a three-year deal.[3][4] During the 2020 and 2021 seasons, he played for the club's reserve team Klubi 04 in third-tier Kakkonen and second-tier Ykkönen.

Henriksson was loaned out to fellow Veikkausliiga side IFK Mariehamn for the 2022 and the 2023 seasons. In November 2022, his contract with HJK was extended until the end of 2024.[5][6][7]

On 3 February 2024, after eight years with the club, Henriksson debuted with HJK first team in a 2–1 Finnish League Cup win against Gnistan.[8][9] On 4 May 2024, Henriksson made his HJK league debut, keeping a clean sheet in a 0–0 home draw against Ekenäs IF.[10]

On 11 July 2024, his contract with HJK was extended for the 2025, and simultaneously he was loaned out to Segunda División club Sporting Gijón.[11]

International career

[edit]

Henriksson has represented Finland in various youth levels. On 30 December 2022, he was called-up to the Finland senior national team for the first time, for two friendly matches against Sweden and Estonia in January 2023, but he remained an unused substitute.[12]
