Jacob Hanstad (born 2 November 2002) is a Norwegian footballer who plays as a winger for Stabæk.
He started his youth career in Koll and Lyn[2] and attended a football programme at Valle Hovin Upper Secondary School.[3] In 2019 he made his senior debut for Lyn, but tore a cruciate ligament in 2020. He continued his career in Second Division club Kjelsås, and was also called up to a single outing for Norway U19 against France U19 in 2021.[4][2]
Hanstad returned to Lyn in 2023 as the club was promoted to the 2024 1. divisjon. He was bought by Fredrikstad FK in 2025, made his Eliteserien debut and scored three cup goals, but failed to break through and after half a year he went on to Sandefjord.[4][5][6][7] At the end of the 2025–26 winter transfer window, Sandefjord decided to sell Hanstad.[8] He was in talks with FK Haugesund,[9] but chose Stabæk.[10]
