Emil Wernsdorf Madsen (born 1 January 2001) is a Danish handball player for THW Kiel and the Danish national team.[1] [2]
In November 2020 he signed a contract with Skanderborg Håndbold for the upcoming season,[3] however he chose to terminate the contract only three months later and instead stayed in GOG.[4] He made his debut for the national team on 27 April 2023.[5]
Madsen's first appearance in an international tournament came at the 2024 European Men's Handball Championship.[6] He ended up playing in just two matches - the group stage game against Greece, where he scored seven goals, and the final main round game against Slovenia - as Denmark finished second, losing out on the title to France.[7]
