If we delve into his past, young Borchgrevink began his professional journey as a trainee in January 2016 at Valerenga, Norway. The initial years saw a sisyphean struggle with the lad making just a single appearance in his debut season in 2017, and a marginal improvement to two appearances in 2018. However, as the years rolled on, his impact in the team grew. By 2020, he was a regular in the squad, making 29 league appearances and finding the back of the net once.
To broaden his horizon, a loan move was deemed fit and he switched to Hamarkameratene in August 2018, only to return to his originating root, Valerenga, in January 2019. In the ensue, adding to his credits, he had short spell at Notodden, once again temporarily in April 2019. His performance was enticing enough to attract a permanent move which materialised in May 2019 for an undisclosed fee.
In 2025, Borchgrevink's northern path paved his way to Scotland with a transfer to Hearts for an undisclosed fee. Four appearances have been documented in his name for the current 2025-2026 season, suggesting that he's taken the bull by the horns and is making his mark. One can only wait and watch how this talented defender unveils his story in the upcoming chapters of his career.
