Jonas Jensen-Abbew (born 20 April 2002), also known as AJ, is a Danish professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for AGF.
Jensen-Abbew started his career at B1973 in Herlev, before joining AB as a U15 player. In September 2018, 16-year old Jensen-Abbew also went on a trial at English Premier League club Tottenham's U18 team.[1]
As a U17 player, in January 2019, Jensen-Abbew joined FC Nordsjælland.[2] In his first six months in Nordsjælland, he won the Danish U17 league with his team. His first year as a U19 player, the 2019-20 season, was plagued by injuries for Jensen-Abbew, but it turned into six U18 national matches that season, and he also played a number of matches for the club's first team, against a number of Danish 1st Division clubs in the winter training matches. In the 2020–21 season, Jensen-Abbew captained the U19 team.
On 4 April 2021, 18-year old Jensen-Abbew made his official debut for Nordsjælland in the Danish Superliga against AGF.[3] Jensen-Abbew started on the bench, before replacing Adamo Nagalo in the 66th minute.[4] This was his only professional appearance in the 2020–21 season.
Jensen-Abbew was permanently promoted to the first team squad ahead of the 2021–22 season.[5] At the end of July 2022, Jensen-Abbew was loaned out to Danish 1st Division club HB Køge for the rest of the year.[6]
In the 2022-22 season, Jensen-Abbew however only made four official appearances for Nordsjælland. In July 2023, he signed a new deal with Nordsjælland until June 2026.[7]
On transfer deadline day, February 1, 2024, Jensen-Abbew was sold for around 1.5 million euros to AGF, where he signed a 5-year deal.[8] [9]
