Club career

Holse made his Danish Superliga debut for FC Copenhagen on 23 September 2017 in a game against Silkeborg.[2]
On 30 January 2019, it was confirmed that Holse would be loaned out to Esbjerg fB in the Danish Superliga for the rest of the season.[3] According to sources, Esbjerg had already tried to sign Holse in the summer 2018.[4]

St. Louis City
On 28 July 2026, Holse joined MLS club St. Louis City on a contract running until 2029, with an option to extend the agreement for an additional year.[7]
International career
In November 2020, he was called up to Kasper Hjulmand's Denmark national team for the friendly against Sweden due to several cancellations from, among others, the Danish national team players playing in England, due to the COVID-19 restrictions, as well as a case of COVID-19 in the squad, which had put several national team players in quarantine. He was on the bench for the game against Sweden.[8]
On 6 June 2025, Holse was again called up to the national team under head coach Brian Riemer for two friendlies.[9] Four days later on 10 June, Holse made his debut for the senior team in a match versus Lithuania. He was substituted onto the pitch in place of teammate Anders Dreyer in the 78th minute as Denmark won 5–0.[10]
