Nikolai Søyset Hopland (born 24 July 2004) is a Norwegian footballer who plays as a centre-back for Aalesund.
Hopland began his career with Aalesund, before representing a joint Aalesund and Rollon team in 2016. He continued to play for Rollon for the next two years, also representing the club in children's futsal at the same time.
He returned to Aalesund in 2019, and progressed through the academy to make his debut in the 2021 season. The following season, following Aalesund's promotion to the Eliteserien, he was loaned to Kristiansund.[1] The loan was not successful, and he only made two appearances before returning to Aalesund. He scored his first goal for Aalesund on 6 November 2022, the winning goal in a 2–1 Eliteserien victory over Lillestrøm.[2]
Hopland has represented Norway at under-17, under-18 and under-19 level.
