Career

OB

Kjerrumgaard startes his career at Dalum IF, before joining OB as an U13 player.[1] Kjerrumgaard worked his way up through the youth ranks and was a prominent goal scorer over the years. In September, Kjerrumgaard was called up for his first professional game for OB; a Danish Cup game against FC Roskilde. However, he remained on the bench for the whole game. On 29 October 2021 OB confirmed, that 18-year old Kjerrumgaard had signed his first professional contract and would be permanently promoted to the first team squad as from the 2022–23 season.[2]

Not long after becoming a regular part of the first team squad, Kjerrumgaard got his official debut for OB; he came on from the bench to replace Ayo Okosun for the last 2–3 minutes in the season-opener against FC Nordsjælland on 18 July 2022.[3] Kjerrumgaard also played in the following three matches.

However, on 31 August 2022, it was confirmed, that the 19-year old striker had been loaned out to Danish 1st Division side Nykøbing FC for the remainder of the season.[4] After a good season at Nykøbing, with 13 goals in 25 games, Kjerrumgaard returned to OB ahead of the 2023-24 season.[5]

At the beginning of the 2023-24 season, Kjerrumgaard made two appearances for OB. However, on September 1, 2023, it was confirmed that Kjerrumgaard would play the rest of the year for Norwegian side Stabæk on a loan deal for the rest of the year.[6]
