About the player
Mikael Ugland is a Kristiansand player. He joined the club's academy in 2012 after starting out at FK Våg, and made his senior debut in the 2017 Norwegian Cup.
Start then sent him out on loan to Flekkerøy IL for 2018. He returned to the club and stayed until early 2022, when he moved to FK Jerv on a free transfer.
Jerv was where his goalscoring came through. In the 2022 Eliteserien he scored five league goals in 21 appearances, and he added three in three Norwegian Cup matches. Jerv then played in the OBOS-ligaen in 2023 and 2024, and Ugland stayed with the club for both seasons.
In January 2025 he returned to Start, again on a free transfer. His first season back came in the OBOS-ligaen, where he scored four goals and provided five assists in 22 league appearances. The 2026 Eliteserien has brought 19 appearances so far, with one assist and no goals.
Before his club career took shape, Ugland went through Norway's youth national sides at every level from under-15 to under-19. He was most prolific at under-16 level, with four goals in 19 appearances. He also played 11 times for the under-17s, scoring once, and 13 times for the under-18s, scoring twice. He made eight appearances for the under-19s.
