Club career

AC Horsens

Kjær joined AC Horsens from local club Hatting/Torsted IF at the age of 12. In the autumn of 2018, Kjær went on two trials at the English club Southampton accompanied by his father, and the talent manager of Horsens, Claus Troelsen.[2] On his 15th birthday, 1 March 2019, Kjær signed a three-year deal with Horsens.[3] On 28 August 2019, the club confirmed that Kjær was going on a trial at Juventus and was going to play in a friendly tournament for the club.[4] In November 2019, Horsens' manager, Bo Henriksen, confirmed that both Juventus and Southampton were ready to sign him, but Horsens eventually refused to let him go.[5]

On Kjær's 16th birthday, 1 March 2020, he made his professional debut for AC Horsens and became the youngest ever to make his debut in the Danish Superliga.[6] Kjær started on the bench, before he replaced Michael Lumb in the 79th minute in a 1–2 defeat against Randers FC.

Ajax

On 14 August 2020, Dutch club Ajax announced that Kjær would join the club as of 7 September. He signed a three-year contract and was initially included in the youth academy.[1][7]

After two years in the academy, Kjær got his official debut for Jong Ajax on 12 September 2022 against NAC Breda.[8]
