Born in Stockholm, Berggren started his career in the youth system of IF Väster. He then went on to play in the youth ranks of GAIS and BK Häcken.

After making 8 appearances in the 2016 season and 7 appearances in the first part of the 2017 Allsvenskan season, Berggren was loaned out to Varbergs BoIS, a team playing in the Superettan, with which he concluded the year making 15 appearances as a regular starter.[1] He returned to Häcken at the end of the loan spell.
