Jens Berland Husebø (born 7 March 1999) is a Norwegian footballer who plays as a centre-back for Eliteserien club Start.
Career Viking Husebø started playing football for Viking at the age of nine. By 2016, he had reached their second team, and made his debut in a game against Eiger. By the end of 2018, Husebø had played sixty-one games for Viking 2, while scoring once.
Hødd Ahead of the 2019 season, Husebø made the move to Norwegian Second Division side Hødd on a two-year contract.
Ull/Kisa After two seasons with Hødd in the Norwegian Second Division, Husebø made the move to Norwegian First Division side Ull/Kisa in February 2021. Husebø arrived to what was supposed to be a trial period with the club, but after the first training, head coach Sindre Tjelmeland told the club there was no need to wait, and to sign Husebø immediately. Two months later, before the start of the season, Norwegian newspaper VG had Husebø as one of the players most likely to breakthrough in the Norwegian First Division. The first season at the club ended in relegation to the Norwegian Second Division.
Bryne After one-and-a-half season at Ull/Kisa, Husebø was picked up by Bryne and headed back to the Norwegian First Division. In his first season, Husebø only played two games in the league before playing over twenty league games in both the 2023 and the 2024 seasons, the latter ending with promotion for the club. The 2025 season saw Husebø play in the Eliteserien for the first time, as local media dubbed him one of the most important players of the squad.
In early September 2025, Husebø, along with Axel Kryger and Robert Undheim all had their contracts with Bryne terminated. The players at the club had been dissatisfied with head coach Kevin Knappen and had started a signature campaign to get him sacked. When the club refused to do so, the club and Husebø agreed that the best thing was to terminate his contracts.
Tromsø On 4 September 2025, only days after leaving Bryne, Tromsø announced that they had signed Husebø on a two-and-a-half year contract. Husebø's first game came under two weeks later, against the club he had just left, Bryne, where he started the game on the bench, before being subbed on in the second half.
Start Under a year after signing for Tromsø, Husebø again changed clubs, this time signing for Start on a three-and-a-half year contract.
Personal life Husebø's sister Guro is a professional handball player who has played in the EHF Champions League.
