On August 1, 2024, in search of more playing time, Meyer was loaned out to newly promoted Danish 1st Division club Esbjerg fB for the entire 2024-25 season. He left the club at the end of the loan spell.

On 21 January 2026, Meyer joined newly promoted Eliteserien club IK Start, signing a three-year deal.
