At the end of the 1988 season , which he finished with the team in fourth place, he was named Norway's goalkeeper of the year. In the following season he moved with the club in the cup final, which was lost to Viking FK . In 1991 he moved on to SK Brann within Norway .

As second in the table behind local rivals Hammarby IF , he missed direct re-promotion with the club. In the promotion games, the team met Östers IF , but failed after a 1-1 draw and a 2-0 defeat. As a result, Olsen's expiring contract was not extended. He then went to the Danish club Aalborg BK , where he acted as a substitute goalkeeper. After an injury to Eddie Gustafsson , the regular first goalkeeper, he moved in early 1999 on loan to the Swedish club IFK Norrköping .
