Nyland was born in Volda and was competing in handball, alpine skiing and football when he was young. As a footballer, Nyland played for Mork IL and Volda TI before he joined Hødd in 2007. Nyland did not play in his first year at the club due to the competition from Kim Deinoff and Vebjørn Skeide. Deinoff left Hødd after the 2007-season and for the next two seasons, Nyland was the second choice behind Skeide before Nyland became the first choice during the 2010 season.
