Emil La Cour (born 19 July 1991) is a Danish former professional footballer. He played as a midfielder.
Rising through the ranks of FC Svendborg, La Cour grew out to become a key player for the 2nd Division (third-tier) club, before being signed by local rivals FC Fyn on 25 June 2010.[2] He had earlier been on a trial at AGF,[3] without this amounting to a transfer. He established a strong partnership with Jeppe Grønning in the central midfield area while playing for FC Fyn, helping them achieve promotion to the second tier in the 2011–12 season.[4]
In June 2012, La Cour signed a four-year contract with Silkeborg IF on 11 June 2012 after a successful trial, where he was initially placed in the reserve team.[5] He made his debut for Silkeborg in the Danish Superliga on 1 September 2012, coming on as an 86th-minute substitute for Marvin Pourié against AGF, a match which Silkeborg lost 4–0.[6] A few days later, on 4 September, he played against his former club, FC Svendborg, in a Danish Cup matchup at Høje Bøge Stadium, with Silkeborg winning 2–0.[7] La Cour made a total of seven appearances for the club.[8][1]
On 2 September 2013, La Cour's contract with Silkeborg was terminated and he instead signed with Danish 1st Division (second-tier) club BK Marienlyst.[8][9]
