Eirik Julius Granaas (born 24 March 2010) is a Norwegian professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Fredrikstad. Eirik Granaas is the son of former professional footballer Lars Granaas, and his older brother Sondre Granaas also plays as a first tier footballer in Norway. Granaas is a youth product of Stoppen SK and Mjøndalen IF, but joined Fredrikstad in Eliteserien in January 2025. He signed his first professional contract with the club the following March. He made his professional debut with Fredrikstad in a 4–0 Norwegian Football Cup win over Sarpsborg FK on 12 April 2025. He came on for Patrick Metcalfe at the 59th minute. Granaas made his Eliteserien on 22 June 2025, replacing Rocco Robert Shein in the last minutes of a 3–0 loss to Viking FK. At 15 years and 90 days, this made him the youngest player to ever play in the Norwegian top flight, breaking Martin Ødegaard's previous record. Later that year, on 14 August, he featured as a substitute in a 2–0 away defeat against FC Midtjylland in the Europa League third qualifying round, becoming the youngest player in European club competition since at least 1971. He scored his first senior goal in a 3–2 away win over Aalesund on 7 April 2026.
