Born on 31 January 1985, Morten Rasmussen stands at a formidable 6ft (1.85m) tall and weighs a solid 13st 9lb (87kg). This former forward hailing from Denmark made a name for himself as a formidable striker and saw a brawny career unfold in his wake.
Rasmussen started his professional journey in football with AGF Aarhus in the Superliga, Denmark. He joined the club in July 2001, and over multiple seasons between 2001 to 2006, and then again between 2015 to 2018, he made a noteworthy contribution with his consistent appearances and a steady stream of goals.
In January 2006, Rasmussen made a move from AGF Aarhus to Brondby in the Superliga, Denmark for around £900k. His time at Brondby from season 2005 to 2010 saw him maintain a similar momentum of performances as his previous club.
Rasmussen's move from Brondby to Celtic in the Premiership, Scotland for a fee of about £1m in January 2010 marked a significant point in his career. He made ten first team appearances for Celtic, scoring two goals during the 2009-2010 season.
Following a loan to Mainz 05 in the Bundesliga, Germany from Celtic in August 2010, the Danish forward transferred from Celtic to Aalborg BK in the Superliga, Denmark on loan in January 2011. Rasmussen then moved to Sivasspor in the Süper Lig, Turkey on loan from Celtic in September 2011.
In August 2012, Celtic transferred Rasmussen to FC Midtjylland in the Superliga, Denmark for around £230k. Once again, over multiple seasons between 2012 to 2016, Rasmussen’s performances oscillated between being robust to exceptional.
Finding his way back to AGF Aarhus in the Superliga, Denmark on a transfer fee of around £150k from FC Midtjylland in January 2016, Rasmussen maintained a consistent form over several seasons. He managed to weave together a series of sturdy appearances and goals during his term.
In January 2018, Rasmussen moved from AGF Aarhus to Pogon Szczecin in the Ekstraklasa, Poland for an undisclosed fee. His time at Pogon Szczecin was comparably short-lived as he transferred from Pogon Szczecin in August 2018.
