Career

Aukland grew up in Søgne and started his youth career in Søgne FK, moving on to larger neighbours IK Start in 2015.^[2] While Aukland was assigned with Start, he was never given a chance to play a competitive match, and was loaned out to Arendal in 2018 before moving on to Fram in 2019.^[3] One of the first things he accomplished here was to help eliminate Start from the 2019 Norwegian Football Cup. For Fram, he also scored 4 goals.^[4] Before the 2019 season was over, he was bought by Fredrikstad FK.^[5]

Aukland helped Fredrikstad win promotion to the 2021 1. divisjon, and became one of manager Bjørn Johansen's "trusted players".^[6] His first goal for Fredrikstad came in June 2023 against his former club Start, helping to move Fredrikstad to a promotion position in the table.^[7] Aukland also scored both an own goal and a goal against Sogndal in September 2023.^[8] Fredrikstad won promotion from the 2023 1. divisjon, and Aukland was a regular for the team in the 2024 Eliteserien.
