Career
Sjöstrand came through the academy of Nacka FC spending seven years in the club before moving to Djurgården via Boo FF, where he scored in the club's under-19 Ligacupen final win over Kalmar FF in May 2023.[3] He joined third-tier Ettan side Sollentuna FK in February 2024 and scored twice in 11 league matches during the spring before moving up a division.[4][5]
In July 2024, Sjöstrand moved to Superettan club Sandvikens IF.[5] He became a regular starter, registering two goals and three assists in 14 league matches during the first half of the 2025 season.[6] Across his Sandviken spell he made 27 competitive appearances with three goals and five assists.[7]
On 11 July 2025, Sjöstrand signed a three-year contract with Dutch club Cambuur, to run through summer 2028 with a club option for a further year, and was assigned squad number 11.[8][9][10] He made his league debut in the second-tier Eerste Divisie in August 2025 and scored his first goal for the club on 15 August in a 1–0 home win over TOP Oss.[11][12]
