Mads Kaalund Larsen (born 16 August 1996) is a Danish professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Danish 1st Division club Hvidovre.[3]

Career

Lyngby

Kaalund started his career with Lyngby.[4] He made his professional debut on 26 March 2015, starting in a 0–0 draw against Brønshøj in the Danish 1st Division.[5]

Nykøbing

On 14 July 2016, Lyngby announced Kaalund's departure as he opted to join newly promoted Danish 1st Division club Nykøbing.[6][7] In June 2018, he extended his contract with Nykøbing until 2019 after two successful seasons at the club, during which he made his breakthrough.[8]

Silkeborg

On 1 July 2019, Kaalund made the move to Silkeborg from Nykøbing, shortly after Silkeborg's promotion to the Danish Superliga.[9] The agreement with the technically skilled central midfielder had been finalised six months earlier.[10]

He terminated his contract with Silkeborg by mutual consent on 29 June 2023.[11] During his four seasons at the club, he had scored five goals in 89 total appearances.[1]

Hvidovre

On 29 June 2023, the same day he terminated his contract with Silkeborg, Kaalund joined newly promoted Superliga club Hvidovre.[12][13]
