Career

After several seasons in the lower divisions Arnefjord got his breakthrough after he was bought from FC Väsby United to AIK when AIK returned to Allsvenskan in 2006. A bitter moment in the 2006-season was a misunderstanding between Arnefjord and AIK's goalkeeper Daniel Örlund, which led to Arnefjord heading the ball into his one goal in the home-match against Helsingborgs IF. When the league finished two weeks later, AIK was only one point behind the league-winners IF Elfsborg, had Arnefjord let the goalkeeper make the save, AIK would have won the title.

Arnefjord moved to Norway to play for Aalesunds FK, where he captained the Tippeligaen side until the end of the 2014 season.[2] Arnefjord helped Aalesunds win its first two Norwegian Football Cup finals (in 2009 and 2011) during his spell with the club.[3]
