Dolberg's footballing journey began in July 2010, when he stepped into the professional realm as a trainee at Silkeborg in Denmark's Superliga. After a debut season with three first team league appearances, he moved in July 2015 to Ajax in the Eredivisie in Netherlands, a transfer that came for a significant sum of around £230k.
