Stryger made his debut for Brøndby IF starting against FC Nordsjælland in November 2009 before being replaced by Jan Kristiansen after an hour. During his time at Brøndby, he quickly became very popular among Brøndby supporters because of his energy, and in the end of the 2009–2010 season and at the beginning of the 2010–2011 season he featured regularly in Brøndby's team, keeping players such as Sweden international Alexander Farnerud on the bench. In August 2010 he was named as one of the greatest talents in Denmark by the Danish media, and at 23 September, Danish football magazine Tipsbladet reported interest in him from Serie A club Genoa.[3][4]

On 9 July 2013, Stryger joined division rivals FC Nordsjælland on a free transfer, signing a three-year deal.[5] He was a regular during his time in Nordsjælland, playing 30 matches in the Superliga during the 2013–14 season.
