Managerial career

Nørgaard was promoted from assistant to head coach on 30 September 2017 [1] when former head coach David Nielsen left for AGF.[2] Before joining Lyngby, Nørgaard was both assistant and head coach at AB, whom he left after the club was relegated to the Danish 2nd Division.[3]

His spell at Lyngby ended in relegation from the Danish Superliga and he was sacked in June 2018.[4]

Im December 2019 it was announced that Nørgaard would join B93 as manager in January 2020.[5] He left B93 in the summer 2022, as he had accepted a job offer from AC Sparta Prague, where he was hired as an assistant coach to newly appointed Danish manager, Brian Priske.[6]

In December 2022 he returned to Denmark to become new manager of SønderjyskE.[7] He led the club to the Danish 1st Division title during the 2023–24 season, earning promotion back to the Danish Superliga.[8]
