Career

[edit]

Youth

[edit]

Sørensen started playing football at Nørre Aaby IK, then at Strib IF and later joined OKS in 2013.[2] From there, he joined the academy of FC Midtjylland and on his 15th birthday, he signed a three-year youth contract with the club.[2]

Sørensen already began playing with the U19s at the age of 16 and was shortly after promoted permanently to the U19 squad despite his young age, after signing a new three-year youth contract in August 2018.[3] The talentfull midfielder once again signed a new three-year deal with Midtjylland in June 2019, where it was also agreed, that he would become a permanent part of the Danish Superliga squad from the 2020-21 season.[4]

Senior

[edit]

FC Midtjylland

[edit]

On 28 June 2020, Sørensen made his official debut for Midtjylland against F.C. Copenhagen in the Danish Superliga.[5] Sørensen started on the bench, but replaced Anders Dreyer in the 88th minute.[6] Sørensen was also subbed in a month later in the second-last game of the season against Brøndby IF.

Loan spells
[edit]

In the first half part of the 2020-21 season, Sørensen continued to train with the first team but did only play for the U19s. To gain some more experience, Sørensen was on 26 January 2020 loaned out to Midtjylland affiliate club, Danish 1st Division-side FC Fredericia, for the rest of the season.[7] Sørensen had a good spell at Fredericia, where he played 11 games and scored one goal. Sørensen returned to Midtjylland for the 2021–22 season.

On 31 March 2022, Sørensen was loaned out to Norwegian Eliteserien club HamKam until the end of the year.[8] He got his debut for the club a few days later, on 2 April 2022, against Lillestrøm SK.[9] However, Midtjylland decided to recall Sørensen on 16 June 2022, presumably due to lack of playing time.[10] Sørensen managed to play just 275 minutes over 6 matches.

Back at Midtjylland

[edit]

After a fantastic season where Sørensen was a big part of Midtjylland's success, winning the 2023-24 Danish Superliga title, the Dane was named FC Midtjylland's Player of the Year and Find of the Year.[11]
