FF Jaro

Brunell began his professional career in the Finnish Veikkausliiga with FF Jaro. He stayed with the club in 2016 when they were relegated to the Ykkönen. In January 2014 Brunell was offered a contract by German 3. Liga club Chemnitzer FC but could not reach an agreement on the terms of the contract.[1]

On March 16, 2017, Toronto FC announced that they had signed Brunell to a contract after he spent time as a trialist during the 2017 pre-season.[2] Brunell was waived just two weeks later, without making an appearance for the club.[3]
