Career

Newcastle United

Aalborg BK (loan)
[edit]On 17 January 2025, Hernes joined Danish Superliga club AaB on loan for the remainder of the season.[7] On 30 March 2025, the day after a 0–4 loss home against Viborg FF in the first match of the Relegation round, Hernes was spotted at a nightclub in Aalborg alongside teammates Andres Jasson and Isak Hansen-Aarøen. All three players officially apologised through the club's website, describing the night out as "poor judgment" on their side.[8]
