Career

On 21 September 2014, when first-choice goalkeeper Ole Söderberg was suspended and second-choice goalkeeper Lars Cramer was sick, Håkansson broke a 79-year-old record when he became the youngest goalkeeper ever to play in Allsvenskan with 16 years, 5 months and 24 days when he played against Djurgårdens IF. He also became the first player born 1998 to play in Allsvenskan. However, Håkansson conceded 4 goals and Kalmar FF lost 4–0.
