Club career

Halmstad

Hakšabanović represented Halmstads BK as a youth. He made his debut in Allsvenskan on 9 April 2015, coming on as a late substitute for Junes Barny in a 3–0 home loss against IFK Norrköping; at the age of only 15, he became the youngest-ever footballer to debut for Halmstad and the second youngest to debut in Allsvenskan after Nicklas Bärkroth.[3]

In August 2015 Hakšabanović spent a week on trial with Manchester United.[4] He has also been on trials for Liverpool, Chelsea, Aston Villa and Manchester City.[5]

After spending his first senior season with only ten appearances and no goals, Hakšabanović scored his first goal on 4 April 2016, netting his team's only in a 2–1 away loss against IK Sirius Fotboll.

West Ham United

In August 2017, Hakšabanović signed a five-year contract for West Ham United in a £2.7 million transfer from Halmstad.[6] He made his debut for West Ham on 19 September, playing 63 minutes in a 3–0 home victory against Bolton Wanderers in the EFL Cup.

Loan to Málaga

On 6 August 2018, Hakšabanović joined Spanish Segunda División side Málaga CF on loan for one season.[7] On 17 November 2018, he made his debut in a 2–0 win against Gimnàstic de Tarragona.[8] In December 2018, West Ham director Mario Husillos expressed dissatisfaction with Hakšabanović's playing time at Málaga.[9]

Loan to IFK Norrköping

In January 2019, he joined IFK Norrköping on loan until the end of the 2019–20 season.[10] On 2 November 2019, he scored a goal and made an assist in a 2–2 tie against 2019 Allsvenskan champions Djurgårdens IF.[11]

IFK Norrköping

In June 2020, Hakšabanović completed a transfer for an undisclosed fee to IFK Norrköping.[12] During his time in IFK Norrköping he made 36 appearances, in which he produced 7 goals and 16 assists.

FC Rubin Kazan

On 27 May 2021, Hakšabanović moved to Russian club Rubin Kazan, in a transfer that IFK Norrköping described as their biggest sale ever.[13] Rubin signed a 5-year contract with him and he was assigned shirt number 99.[14]

On 11 March 2022, Hakšabanović's contract with Rubin was suspended until 30 June 2022 according to special FIFA regulations related to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Those regulations allow foreign players in Russia to unilaterally temporarily suspend their contracts with their Russian clubs until the end of the 2021–22 season and join clubs outside of Russia until that date.[15][16]

Djurgården

On 15 March 2022, Hakšabanović joined Djurgården until 30 June 2022.[17]

International career

Although born in Sweden and having played in Sweden's youth selection, Hakšabanović opted to play for Montenegro, where his family is from.[18] He made his international senior debut for the Montenegrin national team in a 4–1 2018 FIFA World Cup qualification victory over Armenia, on 10 June 2017.[19] On 19 November 2019, he scored his first international goal in a 2–0 friendly win over Belarus.[20][21]
