The player is set to occupy an international spot, signing through the 2026 season with a club option for 2027. He joins as the team continues to build the roster ahead of their league debut in 2023. 

“Isak is a promising young talent, who is quick and exciting to watch,” said sporting director Lutz Pfannenstiel in a release. “He is a typical winger who loves to take on defenders one-v-one and he has been showing that as a teenager for club and country in Denmark.”

Jensen managed eight goals in 29 appearances for SönderjyskE Under 19 prior to signing the contract with St. Louis CITY SC. 

“Isak has been on our radar for quite some time,” head coach Bradley Carnell said in a release. “He certainly has the tools to be a key part of our system and his dynamic play on the wing will be fun to watch.”

Jensen is the team’s seventh player under contract as St. Louis CITY nears their first Major League Soccer match. The team also boasts a Designated Player, signing midfielder Eduard Löwen from German Bundesliga side Hertha BSC earlier this summer.
