Frederik Damkjer (born 31 July 2007) is a Danish professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Danish Superliga club Viborg.
Damkjer started at NUGF Viborg where he played from U6 to U10, and later played U11-U12 at Søndermarken IK before moving to FK Viborg as a U13 player.[1] Here he worked his way up through the club's youth academy and was already a regular in the club's U-19 team at the age of 16.[2]
Damkjer was selected for the Viborg's first-team squad for the first time as a 16-year-old in October 2023 against Brøndy,[3] and was also on the bench for another five matches that same season, though without making his debut.[4] In June 2024, Damkjer signed a new deal until June 2027, and the club also announced that from the start of the 2025–26 season, he would be promoted to the first team squad.[5]
Damkjer made his debut for Viborg's first-team squad on 13 December 2024, being substituted onto the pitch in the 39th minute in place of teammate Mads Søndergaard, in a Danish Cup match against Danish 3rd Division club Brabrand. He later scored in the 57th minute and was named as Man of the Match.[6][7] His Superliga debut later came against AGF on 9 March 2025, playing for 65 minutes of the match.[8]
On 31 July 2025, Damkjer extended his contract with the club until June 2029.[9]
International career
In March 2025, Damkjer was selected for the Denmark national under-18 football team's friendly matches against Netherlands and Wales.[10] He made his debut against the Netherlands on 20 March 2025, playing for 61 minutes before he was substituted off.[11][12]
