Club career

Starting his career in FC Viikingit before moving to HJK in the Finnish top league in 2003, he debuted in 2004, his 2005 season ended badly with a serious injury near the end of the season, he played for HJK until 2008 when Swedish club GAIS signed him after a tip off from former Finnish national team coach Roy Hodgson as a bosman.[1] However before he ever had a chance to make a debut for GAIS he moved to Allsvenska rivals Malmö FF.[2][3]

Before signing with GAIS he was on trial with Italian Atalanta, the Norwegian club Start and a few unknown Danish clubs have also been interested but found him too expensive to buy.[1]

Following a disappointing couple of years with Malmö, Halsti reinvigorated his club career by heading in the 3-2 goal against Kalmar FF away from home in April 2010, which ultimately won Malmö the match. Halsti missed most of the 2010 season due to injury problems.
