Club career
Kristensen joined AGF at the age of 11 in 2013 from Galten FS, where he had been since he was five year old.[1] He later spent one season at Vejle Boldklub – in 2017–18 – before returning to AGF again.[1]
In September 2020, Kristensen signed a three-year deal with AGF, which also secured him a promotion to the first team squad from the summer 2021.[2][1] He made his official debut for AGF on 16 May 2021 in a Danish Superliga game against Nordsjælland.[3] Kristensen made a total of three appearances in the 2020–21 season. In June 2021, he was awarded the Martin Jørgensen Talent Award: an award named after AGF legend Martin Jørgensen.[4]
After five appearances and one goal in the first half of the 2021–22 season, Kristensen signed a new contract until December 2026 with AGF on 1 December 2021.[5]
On 1 September 2023, Kristensen signed a five-year contract with Udinese in Italy.[6]
