Club career
AaB
Grønkjær is a product of Aalborg Chang, before joining AaB as a U13 player.[2] He worked his way up through the club's academy, and during his youth, he was also selected for various Danish youth national teams several times.[3][4]
In December 2023, Grønkjær extended his contract with AaB until the end of 2026.[5] A year later, in December 2024, there were several clubs reportedly interested in Grønkjær, with suitors from both foreign and domestic clubs.[6]
On May 23, 2025, Grønkjær signed a new contract with the club until the end of 2027.[7] The following day, Grønkjær made his official debut, starting in a Danish Superliga match against Lyngby Boldklub; a match AaB lost 1-3.[8]
Ahead of the 2025-26 season, 17-year old Grønkjær was permanently promoted to the first team squad.[9]
