Abrahamsson hails from Uppsala and started his youth career in Unik FK before moving on to another local team Sunnersta AIF. In 2015 he joined the academy of Djurgårdens IF.[2] He made his youth international debut for Sweden in September 2016.[3]
Abrahamsson was moved up to Djurgården's senior team ahead of the 2019 season.[4] He made his debut for Djurgården in February 2019, in a 2018–19 Svenska Cupen match against Hässleholms IF.[5] Some media speculated that Abrahamsson would be the replacement for Marcus Danielson in central defence,[6] but it did not come to fruition. Instead, in February 2020 Abrahamsson had to undergo surgery on his meniscus.[7] In June 2020 he was injured again, this time suffering a torn muscle.[8]
He was released after the 2020 season, went to Superettan and signed for Akropolis IF.[9] After one year, he transferred to another Stockholm club IF Brommapojkarna. For BP he made his Allsvenskan debut on 1 April 2023 against his former club Djurgården.[5]
