Born on the 24th of August, 2001 in Denmark, Alexander Jensen today commands the defence as a right back for Scottish Premiership side, Aberdeen. Standing at 5ft 10in (1.8m) tall and tipping the scales at just 11st (70kg), he is a significant presence on the field; the number 28 on his jersey is a sight familiar to fans.
Currently, Jensen's market value stands around the £1.1m mark as recorded by the Transfermarkt, however, those well-versed in the game will know that value isn't always an accurate reflection of a player's worth.
Jensen's career took off in earnest in September 2020, when he joined FC Fredericia in the Danish Superliga. The transfer may have been met with uncertainty, but Jensen soon established himself as a key contributor on the pitch.
By January 2023, his talents had caught the attention of IF Brommapojkarna, a professional outfit competing in the Allsvenskan, Sweden. The details of the transfer fee remain undisclosed, but clearly, Jensen's star was in the ascent.
Over the course of the 2023 and 2024 seasons, Jensen made 60 first team appearances and notched up five goals, showcasing his abilities not only as a defender but also as a potential threat upfront.
In January 2025, he took a step further north, transferring to Aberdeen in the Scottish Premiership for a fee reported to be around £550k. The 2024-2025 season saw him appear 15 times for Aberdeen's first team in league matches. Currently, in the 2025-2026 season, he's already clocked up 21 appearances.
Besides his consistent league appearances, Jensen has also been a familiar figure in various tournaments. He earned two starts in the League Cup 2025-2026 for Aberdeen, and performed the same for the Europa League Qualifiers 2025-2026. Further commendation goes to his participation in the Conference League 2025-2026 for Aberdeen, where he started four times.
With his consistent performances in various leagues and tournaments, Alexander Jensen certainly is a player to watch. From Denmark to Scotland, he has proved his worth time and again.
