After finishing his graduation in Tottenham Hotspur's youth setup, Olsen signed with Valencia CF.[3][4] He made his senior debuts with the reserves in the 2008–09 season, in Segunda División B. Olsen also appeared three times with the main team, starting in a 1–1 away draw against Al Ain FC and scoring twice vs Standard Liege.[5]
After being sparingly used in his third season, Olsen left the Valencians and signed with Odd Grenland BK.[6] On 2 September he made his debut, coming on as a late substitute in a 1–0 away win over FK Haugesund.[7]
On 29 October 2013, Olsen returned to Spain, signing with CD Castellón until 23 December, to get back to fitness after a crucial ligament rupture in Norway.[8] In March the following year he moved teams and countries again, signing a one-year deal with Fredrikstad FK.[9] Ahead of the 2016 season he returned home to Gjøvik and FK Gjøvik-Lyn.
