After playing for two local clubs and Västra Frölunda IF, he joined IFK Göteborg in 2005. After initially not featuring regularly, he firmly established himself as the club's first-choice right back, starting at that position in 24 out of 26 Allsvenskan matches in 2007 as the club won the Allsvenskan title.[3] During the 2009 season Johansson also started games at left back.
On 27 December 2011, it was reported that Johansson had signed with Seattle Sounders FC in MLS.[4]
Johansson, who has experience from the Swedish U21 team, made his national team debut as left back against the USA in January 2009. He was then selected to play against Portugal in the World Cup qualifiers on 28 March 2009, a match that ended a goal-less draw.
