Club career
In the early part of her career Munk represented both Fortuna Hjørring and Brøndby in the UEFA Women's Champions League.[3]
After scoring 28 goals for Brøndby during the 2012 calendar year, Munk secured a transfer to 1.FFC Frankfurt in January 2013.[4] She scored two goals in six appearances but missed the entire 2013–14 season through injury and asked to be released from her contract a year early before 2014–15. By then she had recovered her fitness and was in search of regular first team football.[5] The following day she was unveiled as a 1. FC Köln player.[6]
International career
Munk scored a hat-trick in her senior Danish national team debut, a crushing 15–0 home win over Georgia in October 2009.
