On 26 August 2007, Forren made his Molde debut as a 59th-minute substitute in the club's 12–1 win against Mandalskameratene.
He got seven league games in the 2007 season and helped the team promote to the 2008 Tippeligaen.
He took the Tippeligaen by storm and European clubs as A.C. Milan, Newcastle, Liverpool and Hoffenheim, have watched him playing for Molde.
But Forren stated that he wanted to stay in Molde for a while, even though his dream was to eventually play in a bigger European league.
He said that he was still young and had a long career in front of him.
He was also linked with Lazio and F.C. Copenhagen.
Forren made his debut for Norway U21 in the match against Ukraine U21 on 26 March 2008.
He played a total of 14 matches for the under-21 team, scoring three goals, and was later capped twice for the under-23 team.
After winning the Tippeligaen with Molde in 2011, Molde rejected two offers from Club Brugge in December 2011.
Forren then won the Norwegian league with Molde in 2012 for the second time in a row and VG and Aftenposten, along with broadcaster TV2, named Forren as the top defender in the Tippeligaen.
