Early life
Håheim grew up on the Norwegian island of Harøya alongside her two parents and two older sisters.[3][4] Influenced by the strong presence of football in her family, Håheim started playing at age 5 for the island's girls team. She then traversed through the local football system, including stints on boys teams and with Træff/Gossen, before joining the youth teams of Molde. For half a year, Håheim traveled to the mainland four times a week to train with Molde;[4] at age 16,[5] she left home and moved permanently to the city of Molde to cut down on the commute.[4]
Club career
Molde
Håheim had a prolific career with Molde FK, netting 41 goals in 45 games across three seasons with the club's first team.[6] In 2021, her final season with Molde, she scored 19 goals in 11 games.[7] Despite finding the back of the net regularly, Håheim was unable to help Molde get promoted to the Norwegian First Division in any of her four years with the team. Although the outcome appeared possible on multiple occasions, Molde were not able to thwart rivals AaFK Fortuna and earn promotion.[4]
AaFK Fortuna
Leading up to the 2022 season, Håheim fielded offers from a variety of Toppserien teams.[8] However, she chose to sign for the team which had received promotion to the Norwegian second tier instead of Molde,[4] AaFK Fortuna.[7] In her first year with Fortuna, Håheim was the top scorer on the team. One of her ten goals, which came against Klepp IL, was named the league's Goal of the Season. Håheim was also nominated for the Norwegian First Division's Young Player of the Year award.[4][8]
Håheim built upon her success in her second year with Fortuna, scoring a large quantity of goals to become the second-highest scorer in the league for 2023.[9] She left the club at the end of 2023 having scored 20 goals and registered 11 assists across two years; nine of her assists took place in her first season alone.[10]
KIF Örebro
After leaving Fortuna, Håheim trained with German Frauen-Bundesliga club SGS Essen. She ultimately ended up instead joining Swedish club KIF Örebro, marking her first time playing for a top-division team.[11] Playing mostly as a right winger,[3] she registered 26 appearances and 3 goals over the course of the 2024 Damallsvenskan.[12] In the final match of Örebro's 2023–24 Svenska Cupen campaign, she scored five minutes after coming in to a match against Djurgårdens IF to secure Örebro's lone win of the group stage.[13][14] Håheim chose to depart from Örebro after the team finished 2024 in 13th place and were relegated to the Elitettan.[15]
Lyn
In January 2025, Håheim moved back to Norway and joined first-division Toppserien team Lyn on a free transfer.[3] In her sole season with Lyn, Håheim recorded 7 assists across 20 matches,[12][1] which was the second-highest in the league.[9] 4 of her 7 assists occurred in a six-match window that stretched from 7 June to a match on 16 August in which Håheim received her first Toppserien red card; the ensuing suspension appeared to stop Håheim's flow of assists, as she did not register any further goal contributions over the remainder of the season.[16] Despite having signed a two-year contract with the Lyn, Håheim was sold at the end of 2025 after only nine months.[17] The transfer fee that Lyn received in exchange for Håheim was the largest in club history.[18][19]
Paris FC
On 16 September 2025, French club Paris FC officially confirmed the signing of Håheim.[9] Håheim made her Première Ligue debut five days later, coming on as a late-game substitute in Paris FC's second match of the season.[20] On 7 October, Håheim received her first start for her new team and played in her first UEFA Women's Champions League match as Paris FC drew with Oud-Heverlee Leuven, 2–2.[16] She scored her only goal for Paris FC[21] on 10 January 2026, helping her team beat RC Lens and advance to the Coupe de France Round of 16.[22] In her loan season in Paris, Håheim totaled 23 appearances across all competitions.[21]
Aalesunds FK
In June 2026, Paris FC transferred Håheim to Norwegian first-division club Aalesunds FK,[21] which Håheim had previously played for from 2022 to 2023 under the era of AaFK Fortuna.[23]
