Andreas Poulsen (born 13 October 1999) is a Danish professional footballer who plays as a left-back for Borussia Mönchengladbach.

Club career

FC Midtjylland

Poulsen started his career in the local football club, Ikast KFUM. He made his professional debut in the Danish Superliga for FC Midtjylland on 1 December 2016 in a game against Silkeborg IF, where he played the whole game on the left back.

Poulsen won the 'Academy Player of The Year' award at FC Midtjylland for the 2017–18 season.

Borussia Mönchengladbach

After a great 2017–18 season for Poulsen with 12 games played for the first team, Poulsen was sold to Borussia Mönchengladbach for 34 million Danish kroner (€4.5 million) which could further increase to 50 million kroner (€6.7 million). This made him the most expensive teenager in Danish football history. Poulsen signed a five-year contract with the German club.

Austria Wien

On 3 January 2020, it was announced that Poulsen had been loaned to FK Austria Wien of the Austrian Bundesliga for the remainder of the season.
