Norell signed his first professional contract, a two year deal with Djurgården, for the 2013–14 season. He extended his contract with Djurgården for another season in May 2015.

Approaching the final year of his entry-level deal with the Blackhawks having made a limited impact with American Hockey League affiliate, the Rockford IceHogs, Norell opted to return to his native Sweden and re-join Djurgårdens IF on loan for the 2018–19 season on August 23, 2018. During the mid-point of the season, he agreed to a two-year contract extension to remain with Djurgården through 2021 on December 17, 2018.
