Despite the Norwegian's tender years he has racked up 54 top flight appearances with Eliteserien outfit Vålerenga, who sit third after 13 games of their 2021 campaign, which traditionally runs from March to November but started in May this year due to Covid-19 restrictions.
He has played every minute in the league this season and missed a single game in 2020 due to suspension. His contract runs until December 2022.
In 2020 Vålerenga sporting director Jørgen Ingebrigtsen confirmed to Oslo daily newspaper Dagsavisen that Leeds were keen on the youngster.
“Leeds made a specific inquiry about what our plans were with Kristoffer," he said.
"The first conversations with them were in autumn last year. We said what you see now, that this is a player we didn’t want to sell. We had faith that he could become the first [choice] keeper at Vålerenga fairly quickly, and he is at the moment. They had a sense of understanding. The talks with them were very good.”
