Early life
Murbeck hails from Kävlinge[2] and started his youth career in Furulunds IK.[3] From the ages 9 to 15 he played for the largest club in Southern Sweden, Malmö FF. He also played for Landskrona BoIS before moving abroad, to the academy of FC Midtjylland in Denmark.[4] With Midtjylland, Murbeck won the Danish U19 League of 2015–16 and finished runner-up in 2016–17.[5] He was named Best Player in the Danish youth league.[6][7] He also finished his secondary education at Ikast-Brande Gymnasium.[8]
Career
After the 2016–17 season he was allowed to train with the first team, but was not given a contract. He then trained with IFK Göteborg.[4][9] Following one year in the 2017-18 Danish 1st Division with Skive IK, he went on trial with Vendsyssel FF in the summer of 2018.[10] In 2019 he moved some miles north of Göteborg, to sign for Ljungskile SK and contest the 2019 Ettan.[11] While playing here, he resided with teammate Johan Brannefalk.[3]
In 2021 he moved back to Southern Sweden and his former youth club, Landskrona BoIS.[12] Landskrona was noted for making do only with players from the region. It was therefore dubbed "Sweden's Athletic Club" in the media.[13][14] At the same time, Landskrona did not play as a fully professional team. With players working on the side, Murbeck was a manager of a padel arena.[15]
After one season in Landskrona, though, Murbeck attracted interest from several larger clubs, possibly in several countries.[16] In early February 2022 he signed for IK Sirius and was flown directly to their training camp in Spain.[17] He managed to get his competitive debut for Sirius, in the .[5] In late March he ruptured a cruciate ligament and was ruled out for the rest of the year.[18] Having hoped to return in 2023, he was still out by the summer of that year.[19][20]
Finally, Murbeck managed to return to training in November 2023.[21] His first friendly match came against Degerfors in January 2024.[22] His first start in the Allsvenskan was against Mjällby in July 2024.[23] Murbeck played 16 games of the 2024 Allsvenskan. He did not gain a regular starting place, however, and was allowed to rejoin Landskrona ahead of the 2025 season.[24] Part of the reason why he moved to Southern Sweden again was that he started a relationship with an air stewardess who often worked out of Copenhagen. The couple therefore settled in Lund (Murbeck resided in Eslöv during his previous spell with BoIS).[2] However, before the start of the 2025 Superettan, Murbeck sustained an achilles tendon injury that might keep him away from football for 6 to 9 months.[25]
