On January 14, 2015, he joined the HJK Helsinki . There he was assigned to the reserve team Klubi 04 , which played in the third highest Finnish division . On August 5, 2015 (18th matchday) he scored his first goal in a 2-1 away win against Sudet Kouvola . On September 13, 2015 (28th matchday) he made his debut for the first team in a 1-1 draw against FF Jaro . In this 2015 season, he played 15 league games for the reserves and two for the first team.

On January 3, 2018, the English second division Leeds United signed Aapo Halme and equipped the central defender with a four-year contract. This made him the fourth Finn after Sebastian Sorsa , Mika Väyrynen and Mikael Forssell to switch to the Whites . Shortly after his arrival, he suffered a serious foot injury and could no longer be used in the 2017/18 season . He started the 2018/19 season in the U23 team, where he attracted attention with his strong performances. Head coach Marcelo Bielsa promoted him to the first team in November 2018 due to injury problems in defense. On November 24, 2018 (18th matchday) he made his debut in a 2-0 home win against Bristol City in the championship, but was replaced by attacking player Samuel Sáiz after 64 minutes . On January 6, 2019, he scored his first goal for Leeds in a 2-1 away defeat by Queens Park Rangers in the 2018/19 FA Cup . After the return of the regular central defender Pontus Jansson , he was no longer considered and reassigned to the U23. He ended the 2018/19 season with five competitive appearances for the first team, in which he scored once.

On July 3, 2019, Aapo Halme moved to league rivals and neighboring club Barnsley FC , where he signed a three-year contract with an option for another year.

Shortly thereafter, Halme advanced into the starting line-up of head coach Daniel Stendel , but had a poor start to the season with his new club and the team got into the relegation battle early on. On October 2, 2019 (matchday 10), he scored his first goal in a 2-2 draw against Derby County . Even under Stendel's successors, the interim coach Adam Murray and the subsequently permanently employed Gerhard Struber , Halme kept his regular place in central defense.
