Peter Kjær (born November 5, 1965 in Fredericia, Denmark) is a former Danish professional football goalkeeper who played most of his club games for Silkeborg IF in the Danish Superliga. He represented the Denmark national football team in four matches, making his debut at the age of 35 on April 25, 2001 in the goodbye match of Peter Schmeichel.
He started his senior career at Vejle BK in 1983, before moving to Silkeborg IF in 1993. He had a brief stint in Turkey with Beşiktaş J.K. before ending his career with Scottish club Aberdeen.
Kjær was included in the Denmark squads for the 1998 FIFA World Cup, Euro 2000 and 2002 FIFA World Cup, but he spent all three tournaments on the bench.
Today, Kjær is sporting director of Danish football club Silkeborg IF
