Möller made his debut in the European competitions with HJK first team on 19 July 2023, after being substituted in the 2nd leg of the first qualifying round of the 2023-24 UEFA Champions League against Larne FC.

On 26 April 2024, while he was still recovering after a surgery, his contract was extended until the end of 2026 with a one-year option. On 24 October, in a UECL league phase match against Dinamo Minsk, Möller scored the winning goal in a 1–0 home victory.
