Club career
Early career
Thern started his professional career in IFK Värnamo. He was soon signed by Allsvenskan club Helsingborgs IF but was immediately loaned to Värnamo for the entire 2010 season.

On 7 December 2011 Helsingborg announced that Thern had rejected a contract offer from the club and would leave when his contract runs out on 28 March 2012, several media has reported that Thern has signed a contract with Helsingborgs arch rivals Malmö FF.[4]
Malmö FF
On 23 December 2011, Malmö FF confirmed that Thern had signed a three-year deal with the club.

Thern received more playing time than expected as he was used both in the central midfield but also on the left wing when needed. This was mainly due to the transfer of Jimmy Durmaz who played as left winger in the first half of the 2012 season and the fact that the competition for the starting spots in the central midfield much higher. Thern played 28 matches and scored 3 goals for Malmö FF in the league for the 2012 season.
For the league title winning 2013 season Thern played 29 matches and scored 4 goals. He also played five matches for the club in its participation for the qualifying stages of the 2013–14 UEFA Europa League.

During Malmö FF's 2014 league winning season Thern made 14 league appearances, missing parts of the season due to a broken bone.[6] Thern recovered during the latter part of the season to be available to play in three fixtures in the group stage of the 2014–15 UEFA Champions League.
Heerenveen
