After two successful seasons in Engelholm, Haak signed a contract with the French club Béziers VB for the 2016/17 season. With her new team, Haak reached the final at the French Cup where Béziers lost to Venelles 2-3 in very closely contested match. She was the top scorer of the French League in the regular season, and voted the MVP and the best opposite spiker of the season. Despite finishing third in the regular season, Béziers were defeated by the defending champions sixth-seeded Saint-Raphaël at the first round of the playoffs. At the end of the season, Haak joined the Italian side Savino Del Bene Scandicci.

Haak made her international debut with the Swedish national volleyball team against Latvia on 10 May 2014 at the age of fourteen, and became the youngest ever volleyball player to represent Sweden at senior level.
