Bjarni Viðarsson joined Everton from Icelandic side FH Hafnarfjörður in the summer of 2004. He has spent the majority of his time with the academy side and the reserves, before training with the first team.

In the summer of 2009, Bjarni signed a four-year deal to sign for Belgium Jupiler League Team Roeselare, making his debut in a 5–1 defeat to Gent. He once again transferred, this time to KV Mechelen in Summer 2010. On 3 August 2012, he signed a four-year deal with the Danish club, Silkeborg IF.
