Club Career

Rosenborg

Midtsjo made his debut as a 16-year-old in the Norwegian Cup in May 2010 against his childhood team Stjordals-Blink. Not long later he officially became a part of the Rosenborg squad. However, during the summer, Rosenborg brought in new players and decided to send him out on loan to local second tier team, Ranheim for the rest of the season.

Upon his return, he suffered a broken leg in a game for the second team, keeping him out for 7 months. After recovering from the injury, Rosenborg decided it was best to send him out on loan to another Tippeliga team, Sandnes Ulf for the 2014 season. He made his competitive debut for Sandnes Ulf on 30 March 2014, replacing Steven Lennon in a 1–1 draw against Odd. On 30 April, he scored his first competitive goal for the club, in a 2–1 home win over Stabak. Midtsjo made a total of 28 appearances for Sandnes Ulf, in which he scored 5 goals as the club suffered relegation to the second division following the 2014 season.

Following the expiration of his loan, Midtsjo returned to Rosenborg and was part of the team for the 2015 season. He signed a new four-year contract with the club on 29 June 2016. On 24 October, he was nominated for the Kniksen Award as best midfielder of the 2016 Tippeligaen, eventually losing out to teammate Mike Jensen.
