Kenneth Viktor Isak Bjerkebo (born 19 January 2003) is a Swedish professional footballer who plays as a forward for Allsvenskan club IK Sirius.

Club career

[edit]

Bjerkebo hails from Stoby, outside Hässleholm [1], and started his youth career with Hässleholms IF in 2008. When he was 12 he scored 4 goals in a 6-4 win vs. Malmö FF, and was subsequently invited to play with Malmö FF for several youth tournaments.[2][3] Bjerkebo then joined Malmö FF at the age of 13, also enrolling at the Malmö Sports Elementary School, successively playing for the club's U15, U17 and U19 teams.[4] In 2021, he played and scored 4 goals in the 2021–22 UEFA Youth League group stage, the last one on away ground against Juventus.[5]

In the summer of 2022, Bjerkebo started his senior career when Allsvenskan team Kalmar FF managed to sign him.[6] He made his Allsvenskan debut on 17 July 2022 away from home against AIK.[7] Despite scoring his first Allsvenskan goal a month later on 14 August 2022 against Djurgården, he did not become a regular in Kalmar's team.[8] As playing time waned significantly in 2023, Bjerkebo was loaned to Superettan team Skövde AIK in the summer.[3] He moved permanently to Superettan team Varbergs BoIS in 2024, taking the same path as former Skövde manager Tobias Linderoth.[9] The 2024 Superettan campaign became successful for Bjerkebo as he scored 11 league goals.[10]

After starting the 2025 season playing for Varberg in the 2024–25 Svenska Cupen in February and March,[7] he was picked up by IK Sirius, thus returning to Allsvenskan.[10][11] In the 2025–26 Svenska Cupen, Bjerkebo was noted for scoring the winning goal in the quarter-final against IFK Göteborg.[12] He continued his fine form in 2026 Allsvenskan, scoring 8 goals in the first 7 games, as Sirius topped the league.[13]

International career

[edit]

For Sweden's youth national teams, Bjerkebo was selected for Sweden U16 in 2019.[14] He appeared in 7 matches and scored 1 goal.[15]
