After impressing during preseason Andreas Helmersen was promoted to the first team ahead of the 2015 Tippeligaen season.[2][failed verification]

Andreas Helmersen made his debut for Rosenborg starting in a 3-0 win in a cup game against Vuku in April 2015.[3] On July 2 the same year he made his European debut coming on in a 2-0 win in the first qualifying round of the 2015–16 UEFA Europa League over Víkingur of the Faroe Islands.[1]

In November 2015 Helmersen, alongside teammates John Hou Sæter and Sivert Solli, became the first players in Norwegian football history to having won the Under-16, Under-19 and the senior Norwegian Football Cup. Helmersen and Sæter having also won the Under-16 cup twice. Helmersen won the Under-16 Cup in 2013 and 2014 and then the Under-19 and the senior cup in 2015. Helmersen scored in both the Under-16 finals.[4][5][6][7]

In February 2018, Helmersen signed a new three-year contract with Rosenborg.[8] A few days later he went out on loan to Ranheim. Originally, he was set to return to Rosenborg in the summer, but the loan was extended to last the rest of the season.[9][10]

At the start of the 2019 season, Helmersen was again loaned out, this time to Odd.[11] Under a month after joining Odd, in a pre-season match against CSKA Moscow, Helmersen was injured. The injury would keep him away the rest of the season, and he would not play an official game for Odd.[12]
