Born 1991. Gjermund Åsen is a Norwegian association football player.

Ranheim Åsen was on two short loan spells at Ranheim in 2011 and 2012, but transferred to Ranheim after his second loan spell on 1 August 2012.

Tromsø Ahead of the 2015 season, Åsen signed a two-year contract with Tromsø. As his original contract ended after the 2017 season, and speculations of other clubs approaching Åsen, he signed a new contract with the club in December for another two years. In 2018, Åsen finished the season with ten assists, the most of any player in the 2018 season.

Return to Rosenborg On 22 January 2019, after four seasons at Tromsø, Åsen returned to his first professional club Rosenborg, on a four-year contract.

Lillestrøm Falling out of favor at Rosenborg, Åsen was loaned out to Lillestrøm ahead of the 2021 season with an option to buy. After the season, in which Åsen would record the most assists in the league with 12, Three months later, in February 2022, ahead of the season, Åsen was selected as the club's captain. In July, Åsen played both games against SJK in the second qualifying round of the UEFA Conference League.

In September 2024, after Lillestrøm had hired their new coach David Nielsen, Åsen was stripped of being captain, in favour of Ruben Gabrielsen. Åsen told the media that it was not unexpected as things changed in football, and that it had been an honour to perform the role of captain as long as he had. Only months later, after poor results throughout the season, Lillestrøm was relegated to the Norwegian First Division, Åsen's first time back in the league since playing for Ranheim. In the final game of the 2025 season Åsen was an unused substitute in the 2025 Norwegian Cup final, where Lillestrøm won their seventh cup title.
