Changing the “Logged in as _____. Log out?” URL

Hello!

I’d like to change the “Logged in as x. Log out?” URL. I only want to change the “Logged in as x.” to take me to /account/ page instead of /wp-admin/profile.php.

I found the string in core WordPress files, but I want to add code to functions.php instead of changing the core file, which will be lost when an update comes.

This is the code I found in core files. What would I have to change in this code to add it to functions.php?

				/* translators: %s: Login URL. */
				__( 'You must be <a href="%s">logged in</a> to post a comment.' ),
				/** This filter is documented in wp-includes/link-template.php */
				wp_login_url( apply_filters( 'the_permalink', get_permalink( $post_id ), $post_id ) )
			)
		),
		'logged_in_as'         => sprintf(
			'<p class="logged-in-as">%s%s</p>',
			sprintf(
				/* translators: 1: Edit user link, 2: Accessibility text, 3: User name, 4: Logout URL. */
				__( '<a href="%1$s" aria-label="%2$s">Logged in as %3$s</a>. <a href="%4$s">Log out?</a>' ),
				get_edit_user_link(),
				/* translators: %s: User name. */
				esc_attr( sprintf( __( 'Logged in as %s. Edit your profile.' ), $user_identity ) ),
				$user_identity,
				/** This filter is documented in wp-includes/link-template.php */
				wp_logout_url( apply_filters( 'the_permalink', get_permalink( $post_id ), $post_id ) )
			),
			$required_text
		),

Is there an easier way to do it?

Kind regards
