Template:Short description Template:Use dmy dates Template:Infobox football biography Nicklas Nygaard Svendsen (born 11 December 1986) is a Danish former professional footballer who played as a left-back. He currently works as executive assistant for the director of football at Danish Superliga club Brøndby IF.[1]

During his active career as a player, he gained 35 caps for various Denmark national youth teams.[2]

Club career

Svendsen progressed through the KB academy in his youth years, after coming from B.93 in 2005.[3] On 2 August 2007, he signed a two-year contract with Dutch club RKC Waalwijk, after having trialled with Emmen. There, he was set to replace the injured Guus de Vries.[4] He made his debut for the club – which was also his professional debut – on 10 August in a 2–2 draw against FC Omniworld.[5][6] He would, however, struggle with injuries after a relatively successful first season with RKC, and saw diminished playing time in his second season at the club.[7] He made a total of 17 league appearances for the club.[8]

After one-and-a-half year, Svendsen returned to Denmark on 2 February 2009, where he signed a two-year contract with Boldklubben Frem.[9] He spent six months with the club in the second-tier 1st Division, before moving on to HB Køge, where he also penned a two-year deal.[10][11] On 20 September 2009 in a home match against OB, Svendsen scored two own goals – a league record.[12] He also committed a penalty during the match.[13] He left Køge after one season, after he was deemed superfluous by head coach Aurelijus Skarbalius.[14] One month later, on 25 September 2010, he signed with Brønshøj Boldklub, where he signed until the end of the year. He signed a six-month contract extension when the deal ran out in December 2010.[15] At the end of the season, Svendsen left the club for Fremad Amager, competing in the third-tier 2nd Division.[16] He also played there for one season, before leaving as a free agent in July 2012.[17]

International career

Svendsen has gained 35 caps for various Denmark national youth teams, including 19 appearances for the under-17 team and 11 games for the under-19 team.[2]

Post-retirement

Svendsen retired from football as part of AB Tårnby, and later worked as assistant coach for Tårnby FF.[18] In March 2018, he was appointed executive assistant for the sporting director at Brøndby IF, assisting first Troels Bech, and since Ebbe Sand and Carsten V. Jensen.[1]
