Early life
Jensen was born in Hillerød, Denmark, he began his youth career at Hillerød GI[1] before going on to F.C. Nordsjælland where he has played since he was 13 years old, signing his first contract with the club at age 16.[2] He would later go on trial with Celtic, but decided against a move to the Scottish club stating that though moving to a large foreign club would be a dream move, moving at 16 years of age was too young and that staying at FCN would be better for his development.[3]

He would play his second match for the senior team in the following round of the Danish Cup on 21 September, in a 2-0 win over 1st Division side FC Hjørring. David Jensen would go on to make his Superliga debut on 24 September, coming on as a 44th-minute substitute for the injured Jesper Hansen, in a 1-0 loss to AGF. He would make his first league start on 2 October, in a 1-0 win over SønderjyskE, but had to come off at half time because of an injury to his knees from a collision with another player.
