Behrendt started playing football with local clubs Bremervörder SC and TuS Heeslingen.[1] In 2006, he joined the youth ranks of Northern German heavyweight Hamburger SV, but switched to Rapid Wien at the age of 16 when his father moved to Austria for work.[2] He advanced through the club's youth system and made his debut for the second team in a 3–0 win against SV Mattersburg II in Regional League East on 5 March 2010. He joined First League side SV Horn on loan in January 2013 for the remainder of the 2012–13 season.[3]
After returning to Rapid Wien, Behrendt made his first-team debut as an extra-time substitute in an Austrian Cup penalty shootout defeat to LASK Linz on 14 July 2013. He missed most of the 2014–15 season with a broken metatarsal, and he joined Arminia Bielefeld in July 2015.[4]
In December 2020 it was announced Behrendt would move to Eintracht Braunschweig in January 2021, having agreed a contract until summer 2023.[5]
On 8 January 2024, Behrendt moved to Hallescher FC in 3. Liga.[6]
